Re: 1080 24p FCP workflow questions

[jordan82] "but I'm wondering if the FireStore FS-100 is much better (for example, can the FS-100 record in the P2 MXF format the way that the P2 cards do?)."

Yes the FS-100 should be much better than the CitiDisk. For one thing, it works reliably now, after several firmware updates. And it has lots of features the CitiDisk doesn't. And yes, it does record in the P2 MXF format like the P2 cards do, although you do have to run an "organize P2" menu option before importing into FCP. And with version 3 of the firmware it'll allow direct recording into Quicktime movies, so those who use FCP will be able to bypass the whole importing process and just drag the recorded files directly to the timeline.
