Re: EX3 files not working in final cut

Craig, thanks very much for the help and responses. On the quality issue, I agree with the differences between monitors and how it looks but it seems so dramatic in the differences. I guess the best way I can describe it is like the first time you went from basic cable to HD on your TV and thought wow, never thought it could be this good. The link to the person giving some direction on using the camera is very good and I only wish we would have had the time to study it. Also knowing what was planed should have done some posts like I have seen on site with people asking for Guidance before they start. My thought is it would have to be the settings on final cut if their is no change in quality from going pc to mac. Her MAC has a great monitor and she is using the better processor i7 intel with a lot of memory. Only issue is the MAC computers at school are also showing this degradation in quality with final cut. Its like setting that iso way to high and then getting the noise all over the shot. Hopefully it is settings issues and we can correct it because we both think it should look better and as you confirmed the settings on the camera were ok as seen by the mp4 properties. Will keep you posted and respond right away if we figure it out.
