Seems like we share common ground, as I too am on Windows. Although the recent malfunctioning of Premiere Pro on my system makes me want to throw the thing out of the window. I have a 32-bit Vista PC with a DualQuad Q8200 @2.33GHz, 4GB of RAM (no point having more on 32-bit) and a GeForce 9600GT graphics card. I am now considering either overhauling the current system (Windows 7 64-bit, new motherboard, chipset, discs, graphics card, etc) but have a few questions: - Which i7 chipset would you recommend? - How much internal memory for Adobe CS4 (Ae, Pr, Ps & Ai) do you recommend? - How does the Quadro CX card compare to Quadro 4800? Just the H.264 encoding and the cartoon effect in Ae? - How do you get Pr to be stable with NeoScene footage transcoded from the 5D/7D source files? Please advise. Richard Hi Mike,

After an extensive period of researching cameras (I was considering an EX-3 with a Letus 35mm adapter), I decided to go DSLR all-the-way. I now own both a 5D-ii and a 7D, with proper 35mm glass and stabilisation gear from Zacuto. I'm in love with the shallow DOF and the versatility of the camera (timelapses). I too wrote a piece on working with HD video on ReelSEO: http://www.reelseo.com/hd-video-dslr-camera/ Look forward to seeing the final result of your movie. Where/when is it going to be released?

Now that I just purchasing a 7D, I'm realizing it is dramatic shift from simple Standard DV acquisition... CF cards, backup solutions in the field, XLR inputs, and then monitoring on systems like a CS3... I'll be looking forward to your next article! Thanks for posting! Richard Hello Mike,

I am trying to transcoding Panasonic MXF to DV for offline editing, with Adobe Media Encoder, but AME not keep the MXF timecode, it is this a bug? Premiere CS3 works fine (embedded the original timecode) via the export file menu. Thanks Pardon Mike, this is off topic.

As for Speedgrade, the fact that it finally plays Cineform files in RT is great, now we just need some export options.
