  RE: Can''t load BMPCC clips into Vegas Pro 13
  Looks like a problem for Blackmagic and Sony to figure out. I don't think you're missing anything. Any recent version of QuickTime for the PC supports reading ProRes files. Since it works on Vegas Pro 12.0 it sure sounds like a bug in Vegas Pro

  RE: Installing and using the Acid DNxHD codec in Vegas
  I do not know why here is still stated that one cannot work in Vegas with 10bit. That is very very wrong. Here we have a camera that seems to deliver trud 10bit too. So this is still a valid possibility. For the Blackmagic codec - I would test
