Re: XD Cam HD - Did I mess up?
by Alan Smith on Oct 6, 2008 at 12:52:27 pm

We use XD Cam HD for all of our productions. We have over 50 episodes shot with XDCam. We always digitize our footage to ProRes 422(HQ). There is not quality loss and you go from 1440 x 1080 to 1920 x 1080. You get a great picture with Pro Res.

To produce a BetaCam chase tape you will have to downconvert. We use our Kona3 cards to do all of our upconvert/downconvert. Our workflow for this is to play our HD timeline through the Kona3 and it will downconvert to SD. Patch the workstation to the deck and Kona will take care of the conversion with no audio sync issues.

Hope this helps.
