HDCam to DVC Pro HD at DVinfo.net

Jeff Mack · November 27th, 2006, 03:34 PM

I wanted to skip the dubbing step (tape cost and double the time) to convert my HDCam to DVC Pro HD. I called Panasonic and had a support tech tell me that it is possible to hook up a Sony deck to the AJ-HD1200A deck via HD SDI and then out of it directly into FCP via firewire. Has anyone done this before? Since I don't have HDSDI on my MBPro, I thought this would give me a better edit than an SD Downconvert from the Sony deck to DV via firewire.

Hello,
Sounds plausible....
We have digitized from DVCPRO HD to FCP with firewire
We rented the deck from here.
