Re: [FCP-L] Sony EX1R Post Workflow

I've worked with source from this camera. Looks great, IMHO.

Works very much like P2 workflow, but you can buy cheaper SD adapter cards
like the MXR Adapter <http://e-films.com.au/shoppingcart/pages/mxr.html>.
Only downside to the cheaper media is no over/undercranking on the SD cards.

Copy the SxS card to one (or more!) SATA drive for archiving.
ShotPut<http://tinyurl.com/ybtev2o>automates this nicely with
verification.

On a Mac FCP system, you can either use Log and Transfer or the XDCam
Transfer software to screen and import the footage.

The files come in as XDCamEX QTs, 1440x1080. My suggestion, edit them into a
ProRes timeline and hit render every once in a while. It makes life easier
when exporting at the end of the day...

Edit at full rez, but use an Octo-Core to be happier.

On Avid, I guess you would import with AMA...
