Re: matching EX1/3 with digibeta?

Matching the footage to digi will be fine with good hardware - but you will have to down-convert to SD, and results vary wildly if you don't have Blackmagic or Konja (etc) hardware to assist with that. A simple Final Cut sequence downconvert without such hardware will produce ordinary downconverts (such as weird and jagged lines - like on shelving, and car grills etc) - which troubles lots of people on this forum without that hardware.

Also, if shooting off tripod, should be fine - if off the shoulder, be careful - motion from an ENG digi shot off the shoulder looks very different to the potentially shaky handheld of the smaller, lighter EX1.
