Yeah, I don't know much how all this works at this time....Trying to learn.
Thanks again.

i will have the results of first week shootng with HD on my table this week. And i'm really curious to see how it turned out. So far I have been told that at least with the FX1E the lighting is easier than with the DV cam we used before. maybe that one was just not good - also possible.
regarding the the files on DVD - this is what we did from the beginning. I was always frightend to send the original tapes and found it easier to capture the stuff and burn the files on DVD. With the Sony cam I can now offer to send HD files (MPEG2) or DV files (avi) or both. The Sony converts the HD to DV when capturing if you want or need that. The only thing is: also the DV files will be in 16:9 instead of 4:3
edit: and no, HD tapes don't play on DV devices cause it's a different format (MPEG 2)
