Subject: [Avid-L2] Re: OT: Flip Video Cameras
I just tested out one of these today.
The producer shot a little 1:30 vid around the office then connected it to
his PC and copied the .mp4 file to a networked share. I then accessed the
network share and copied the file to my local hard drive on the Mac.
Then in Avid, I imported. Couldn't have been simpler and given the
low-light conditions in the office and edit suite, the footage actually
looked pretty decent. I tried various import codecs as well, just to see
what would look the best.
I first tried a 720p/29.97 project and brought it in DNx75. Then I flipped
to 30i and imported as DV25, cut a little into a sequence flipped to
1080i/59.94 and Batch Imported at 1:1 10b. I also tried AVC-Intra 100 and
XDCam 35Mbit. I could not see any noticeable differences at all except in
the DV25 of course, because it was down-converted to SD.
