Re: ARRIRAW offline editing workflow with AJA Kona 3 and FCP

It never surprises me how pretentious and arrogant people in this industry are. Thanks for attempting to belittle me and blame me for my production's issues, but you're assuming I had a say in what equipment was purchased. You are wrong. You are also wrong about importing at 720p because there is no 720p option that is true 24fps, I've tried many different importing options, and I get dropped frame error with all except for 1080spf 24fps, which is why I have to import at HD quality.

I realize AJA makes great products that have been used in many films. Duh. This is a low budget film that has gone above its means, and I'm asking specifically if there is any way to compress the footage I have captured, then make the clips in Final Cut offline, reconnect them with the compressed clips and still somehow maintain the original clips' timecode. If you have an answer to that or any real advice, I welcome it. Otherwise, please avoid thrusting your arrogant negativity upon people who just want to make a movie.
