Perhaps. ..but I wonder if you are wanting the Intensity Shuttle for capture to Veagas 11..and if so, here is the most important thing - you need compatible hardware interface between the shuttle and your PC motherboard...this requires a lot of thought and consultation with Black Magic. In particular if your interface to the PC is going to be USB3.0 - there is a strictly demanding hardware driver interface.

On the software side there are hoops as well. The Shuttle series has been designed to be seamless with Premiere up through CS-5 - don't know as yet, how it is working with CS-6.

On the other hand in the current state of Hyperdeck Shuttle 2, it is designed to be interfaced with workflows in MAC FCPX or a possibility to work with Adobe Premiere CS-5.

It is rumored that an upcoming update to Shuttle 2 will allow transfer of codec on SSD drive to an EX-fat formatted drive - which would be good because you could be freed from using Apple Mac as part of the workflow. Rumor not confirmed at this date, however.

The biggest hurdle for users of any type is getting an expensive SSD drive that will actually remain working in the product. Many horror stories of wasted drives - if you go cheap.

You may want to skip this idea - if your (GOOD) camera is recording to CF cards OR? already. AND If you can take the HDMI off the camera head, rather than playback of the recording- which few cameras actually allow - your only reasonable purpose for doing so - is to protect shooting greenscreen integrity. Ask yourself are you getting anything more than an 8-bit capture in the SCS Vegas Product line.

Just to be clear, you want to connect the Hyperdeck to your computer via HDMI and capture video FROM the computer into the Hyperdeck and then edit the captured video in V11?

I have 3 cameras, the Canon HV20, 30, & 40, which do dump the raw data stream through the HDMI as the camera is capturing the image. I want to buy the Corsair Neutron GTX 240 Gb SSD to use with the Shuttle 2. My laptop has two USB3 ports, and an eSATA/USB port.

I want to capture with Blackmagic from the camcorder as I am filming, then later edit on my laptop with an external hard drive.

Here is the best news we have been waiting for:

"IBC 2012, Amsterdam, Netherlands - September 7, 2012 - Blackmagic Design today announced HyperDeck Software Update 3.5, a new software update for it’s popular HyperDeck Studio that adds support for the industry standard ExFAT file system so Windows formatted ExFAT disks can simply be inserted for recording and playback. ExFAT is also supported on Mac OS X, so this means disks can be natively mounted on both Windows and Mac OS X without any third party software required.
ExFAT is a Windows based operating file system that features state of the art technology, including large sized disk and file support, wide compatibility and high performance. All modern Windows computers include support for ExFAT and can format disks. In addition, Mac OS X also supports ExFAT disks, so ExFAT formatted disks can be plugged into both Windows and Mac OS X machines without any third party software required.
Support for ExFAT on Blackmagic Design’s HyperDeck broadcast recorders is transparent to the user as there is no settings for this feature and the HyperDeck will detect the format of the disk and automatically record and playback from that disk. This means the customer can format disks for ExFAT or HFS+ and mix and match those disks on the same HyperDeck automatically without changing any settings.
This HyperDeck Software Update 3.5 will be available in September 2012 free of charge for all HyperDeck Shuttle, HyperDeck Studio and HyperDeck Studio Pro customers."

With the Hyperdeck Shuttle 2 you record to the SSD in the unit then take the SSD out and plug into an external drive dock connected to your PC and simply copy the files over. You have several choices of uncompressed or compressed formats. Works fine with Vegas Pro 11.
