[FCP-L] Re: HDV Question

 

Wow I did 60 half hour episodes on HDV a couple years ago and I didn't have but two or 3 tape hits for the entire season. I was quite surprised and happy. These shows went through Discovery level QC so they had to be technically correct. I was using the HVR-1500 which is the only deck to use for HDV unless you are dealing with the newer native progressive stuff. I guess the offline guys might have avoided shots with drop outs but that's usually not the case these days. I get shots all the time that are just plain wrong with iris shifts etc... that should have never been used so I doubt that series was any different. I was more surprised than anyone that the format worked so painlessly. I'm not debating image quality here just technical drop outs etc... It beat the heck out of fixing all the long interval drop outs from BetaSP from my experience.
