Re: P2 cards are 100% "Media". The pure definition of Media supports that

[i]"The cost of investment for the P2 media must rest with the producer not the crew or rental house just like with tape media.[/i]

The problem with that line of thought is that it is equating tape with P2 cards. That would be like viewing DVD-R and hard drives as the same thing.

The producer may very well pay a rental fee on the P2 cards as part of the camera package. Now, the cost of the media handed off to the producer can easily be passed along to the producer (i.e. hard drives, or whatever other medium they prefer).

[i]Anyone who has real world experience with producers will relate to exactly what I am referring to.[/i]

I can relate to what you're saying, and I agree that it may be a tough sell for a producer the first time out. However, I think that after 1 job with this workflow you'll get that producer's business again. They will save time and money in post thanks to the P2 aquisition.

Again, this isn't for everyone. But I think those producers who see the value in P2 will flock to it rather quickly.
