Memory card recorder for the Z1
I'm looking at a second hand Z1 but I'd like to add an SD card recorder to it. Is this possible without an HD-SDI output? Is there one that hangs of the Firewire port or anything else?
Thanks |

Mod note: I have split these posts off from the "Z1 discontinued" thread where they originally were posted.

I think you'll find the Firestore and Edirol units do the same. I've consider taking thius route - especially with the Edirtol which is formatted NTFS not Fat32 but I'd prefer an interface that locks - the firewire link can easily get pulled out.

But it will ONLY do DV or HDV. I have used my MRC1 mostly w/ my Z7U, but I have also used it w/ a Z1 & a HVX (in DV mode).

I compared it to a Firestore, which can do more than just DV & HDV. The Sony CompactFlash recorder can record any format the Z1 can record in. The two work beautifully together.
