Re: Big problems with Z1 footage

I had the same issue with some Z1 footage recently.

Like you, the camera had been recently sent in for repair. It turned out the camera was recording as HDV1080i/60 (Z1s can shoot in both) even though it had been set to 1080i/50. It was an error with the camera.

So when FCP was set to capture as HDV1080i/60 the footage was fine. This also explained why the footage played back fine on the camera itself (same scenario as you). We even shot on Sony premium tapes too (never again!).

I hope this proves to be a solution for you - I know what a nightmare it was for me when I thought we'd lost all the precious footage!

Best,
Adam
