I am making the jump from SD to HD. This means a new camera and editing system as my old Premiere 6.5 and computer are ancient. Most of my output will be DVD (see www.natureflixs.com for my primary subject matter) with Blue-ray in the future. After comparing the HPX170 and EX1 it looks like the EX1 is my choice. Now on to a computer and editing system that compliements camera choice.
After reviewing this and other forums for the past 6 months, this is what I am looking at. Any advice is appreciated.
- NLE software = Edius 5 with HDspark card. Ext. 1080p display Vizio 22" HDTV.
- Computer setup.
CASE: Antec 900 - 2
POWER SUPPY: Corsair 550 watts
MOTHERBOARD: Asus P6T deluxe Version 2
PROCESSOR: i7, 920 Quad
MEMORY: Ocz, 6GB(2x3) Platinum TXT PC3-10666DDR3 (7-7-7-20)
GRAPHICS, Sapphire HD4830, 575mhz, 512mb
SYSTEM DRIVE: WD 160GB caviar sata 3
SECONDARY DRIVE: WD 750GB, caviar black sata 3
DVD BURNER: Samsung SH-S223 sata connect
CARD READER: Rosewill RCE-IM5001 usb connect
SOUND CARD: Creative sound blaster audigy SE, PCI
OPERATING SYSTEM: Vista 64 home premium
DOCKING STATION: Thermaltake BlackX w/sata interface
DOCKING STATION DRIVE: WD caviar black (various GBs)
Plan to use the docking station and drive for current work project. When done, store drive and replace with new drive for next project. The EX1 and system described is the very upper end of my budget.
Thanks,
Mark
