So with all the new stuff available how is the capture and conversion accomplished? My old system uses the Cineform conversion codec to avi from the Sony HVR-Z1U.
My new camera records Ultra High Definition using SD cards. I transfer the data from the SD card to a folder on an NVME solid state disk and drop it on the Vegas Pro timeline. No conversion.
I used to convert to cineform, but no longer see any speed benefit over UHD mp4 files so I don't bother. I do use MAGIC YUV intermediates as needed for moving between programs etc.
