Re: My problems with color correcting P2 footage.

Because DVCPRO 50 is the codec that the files originated in, I would media manage the offline edit using Final Cut Pro into Uncompressed 10-bit. In our testing this is sometimes even better then bringing the footage in through SDI (depending on the VTR's internal converter). You have to set it to recompress the files and I'd add 1-2 second handles.

DV, DVCPRO 50 and DVCPRO 100 all are great acquisition codec
