Re: Do I really need a capture card for editing hdv? Help!

Michael: you make some interesting points, but for basic HD editing it's no longer necessary to buy desktop computers and laptops are much more convenient. If there's a problem transferring footage from an EX1 to Final Cut using the standard transfer software that's something Apple and Sony need to sort out, and perhaps another reason to avoid Final Cut for now for the purposes under discussion here.

Maybe I shouldn't have said so emphatically that the desktop/Kona solution is unnecessary for Buck, but I wanted to make clear that it's not a requirement. The minimum equipment needed for editing EX1 footage is a Firewire cable or Expresscard reader and some editing software which can handle the footage, and that's it. If Buck thinks he may need something more advanced that's fine, but there are simpler choices.
