Hi recently traded my PC editing station for a MacBook Pro.
Was wondering if there is anyway to record raw video from my Canon XH-A1 HDV camcorder directly onto my MBP using Final Cut Pro 6.0 and not using the DV tape mechanism in on camera.
I know that Adobe On-Location CS4 will do what I want, but I can't afford to buy a copy right now. I understand you can record video using a new feature in Quicktime Pro, but so far I haven't been able to make it work.
I just want to get around recording to tape and hopefully lengthen the life of my camera's tape drive mechanism.
All thoughts, experience on this subject would be greatly appreciated
