HD For Indies

Well, all these numbers are speculatory. But, having said that, the ratio of 8 to 20 minutes sounds suspiciously close to the inverse of 40%. So, absent better information, it would appear this camera gets its 24p from a method similar to the varicam, in that it internally uses a 60p signal (the difference being that it throws away the other frames rather than creating duplicates and recording them to tape as the varicam does). If so, then the end result will be a 40 Mbps 1080@24p signal, rather than the 80 Mbps 3:2 24p@60i I've been hoping for.
 

Can it record to a Firestore-type device directly in any/all codecs? Or only your inserted cards? I guess having a laptop and portable FW drive to pull files on to in the field is reasonable. Can you mount the cards from the camera, and not the card reader? If so -- remind me again why I need the reader?

All I know is, I want one of these cameras badly!!!
 

In 1080 mode the camera will record a 1080/60i stream with a 2:3 or 2:3:3:2 pulldown in the same way the DVX does to achieve it's 24P. In 720mode you will record only the 'active' frames to the P2 card, giving you a 40mb/s datarate at 24P. It is sampling the chips at a true 24rpw, not 60P and throwing away frames.

Focus Enhancements is a "P2 Partner" so it's probably safe to assume we'll see a Firestore device for DVCProHD soon enough. The camera will also be able to dump files directly from the P2 cards to any off the shelf firewire/USB 2.0 drive without the need for a laptop on set.

A card reader could still be handy if you don't have time to stop shooting to dump the files directly from the camera. In that case you would use a card reader hooked into a laptop or computer of somekind.

Hope that helps.
 

Just came from the NAB and saw the camera - it was amazing! HD 24P in a hand-held. Never thought I'd see the day.

Also went to the CineAlta Film Festival at the NAB and saw some amazing movies shot on 24P.

Has anyone seen 'Gone' - www.GoneTheFilm.com? That was at the first CineAlta Film Festival. Amazing film shot on 24 P
