Xena LHi vs. ......
by Carlos Manuel on Oct 6, 2009 at 3:39:22 pm

Hi all,

I need to assemble my new NLE and I'm considering 2 options.

For those that have choosed the Aja Xena LHi vs. HD Extreme,
what is the reason(s) for that choice?

I give maximal importance on video image quality.

What kind of work do I do:
- 50% PremierePro
- 50% Combustion
Documentaries, Corporate, Pub TV Spots.

I shoot with a Sony Z1.
Preview SD on a Sony PVM-20L4
Will buy a Consumer LCD from Sony, Samsung or LG with HDMI input for 1920x1080.
Plan to get a BlackMagic UltraScope.

Any advice / recomandation is very, very welcome.

Thanls,
Carlos

Keep in mind, you'll need a second computer for the Ultrascope...I like that product.

I have not used Black Magic products...I have used AJA products.

AJA has been responsive on tech support issues, they seem to be aware of what aspects of the product need to be solid, like signal quality and downconversion, and the workmanship of the hardware also "feels" very solid.

I'd suspect you'd get a more meaningful list of Black Magic's benefits on the Black magic forum.
