Re: Sony XDCAM EX SXS Cards

IMHO you would be best off using the Kona LH series. I use a LHe with a Mac Pro and have had great results capturing from our EX1 via HDSDI and ingesting in the DVCPRO HD format for space conservation. The Kona is designed around the DVCPRO HD format and a real winner under 2 grand. I would have one hesitation in purchasing the LH series for your setup. The version Kona card compatible with the G5 towers is NOT compatible with the newer Mac Pro systems. I have a feeling that PPC based systems are on their way out and you might want to spend the extra money for the AJA IOHD. The IOHD would work for the PPC macs as well as the Intel macs. It would also allow you to use your laptops as capture devices. By the way I have also heard the MOTU V4HD unit is nice but I have not used it and would have a tendency to stick with AJA since they have been in the business so long. Good Luck.

Nick
