abhishek bhardwaj Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Hello every one , I am going to shoot on P2HD AG HPX-502 camera for the first time. This is going to be HD Shoot. Since I am using this camera for the first time ( I am not a camera man but the possible cinematographer who is shooting had of course used HD camera but not this one) I asking for the tips so that I can shoot without any trouble. I will try to explain the situation as clearly as possible. Particularly I am shooting upon this camera so that I can save money on the post and consequently can save money upon digitization of tape, but using P2 card is also giving me sleepless nights. I am getting 32 GB two P2 cards. I want to know if I can directly capture the recorded footage on any window based computer as a file. You know as we copy any file from a pen drive. I want to know if I plug the camera with USB device will my computer recognize it and will I be able to copy the folder into my laptop so that I can further take this footage in another city for post production. Please advice as soon as possible thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hengky Christ Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Hiii bhardwaj I can understand your problem exactly . ON FINAL CUT PRO The first is you must prepared a final cut pro (FCP) versi 6 + or better on FCP 7 Second REMEMBER Click on "SYSTEM SETTING" final cut pro tab then click the SCRATCH DISK tab , click set ( lets make a new folder for material capture / transfer) the file will be on MOV (quick time ) Format. Now Click on " FILE " Then use "LOG and TRANSFER" . you will see a small window roll down. in the TOP LEFT OF WINDOW , you will see small icon which is folder with plus icon than let the window take you to the folder / card where had you put ( the files on mxf format) finaly you will see your footage appear. NOW DRAG THE FILES onto the LEFT BOTtOM (where you see the " Drag the media here) . wait until transfer finish and you will see some of footage on the your browser. ON PREMIERE PRO CS 4 Just copy your card (the whole card ) onto the folder (carefule , do not forget to make different folder for different card) now just open CS 4 and import the MXF file on the Video Folder Good Luck bro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
