When I bought the body of GH1, it came with this REALLY-REALLY annoying software called "PhotoFunStudio". It occupies 364mb on my computer (which doesn't have much breathing space) and frankly, I still don't understand what is it for??? Is there any particular purpose why I might need it, like "correct" file transfer or the "correct" deletion of video and photo files??? Do I need it at all??? Or shall I just uninstall it?

I noticed that when i shoot in AVCHD, my .MTS files are not time-coded. Do I need "PhotoFunStudio" to time-code them?

Here is my workflow. If you see any mistakes or have any suggestions, please tell me.
Sometimes I use my GH13 for taking photos, but primarily for making movies. I use GH13 with Blackout-Powell patch, a 5 year old Dell Latitude D820 laptop with 80GB hard-drive and 3.25GB of RAM, 3TB external HDD, Win XP SP3, Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. At the end of the day, I take out the SD card and put it into a USB-card-reader and put it into my laptop. Then I navigate to PRIVATE/AVCHD/BDMV/STREAM , select all .MTS files and move them to my external HDD for editing later in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Then, I safely remove the SD card, put it back into GH13 and delete all files (sometimes I format the whole card). When I edit with Premiere Pro CS4, I just drag-n-drop the .MTS files (without timecoding) from my external HDD into the bin and edit away.

Any ideas, suggestions, reflections, would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks!]]> https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/1360/2nd-hdd-in-macbook-pro Fri, 04 Nov 2011 05:53:50 +0000 stoney 1360@/talks/discussions @driftwood's GOP1 made it easier to edit raw clips out of GH2VK. Now I really wanna bring the laptop everywhere... but it's been hassle to bring ext hdd. So I decided to install 2nd hdd. 1TB 9.5mm hdd :)

Since I have a unibody mbp, I ordered one from maxupgrades.com. Definitely overpriced but I don't wanna take a chance on a cheaper one from ebay this time.

This guy has a blog about it and an installation video. http://abbyandwin.net/blog/2011/08/19/optibay-kit-from-maxupgrades-com/

Then I edit my project. when I'm happy I want to send it to after effects to add some motion stabilizer and magic bullet looks cause FCPX can't handle looks yet. Now should I export it full size?? ok then I get it in AE C5.5 (this time the file was 1,8 Gb). I do my things but its extremely slow cause of the big file.

then I export it again and put it in FCPX again to add music and then I export it to vimeo (this time the file is 10,5 Gb?????).

I feel I'm not doing the right thing files are huge and the computer is suffering :).

would be nice if you (or someone) could describe a step by step how to do it!]]> https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/1202/listen-to-seven-different-mics-into-a-gh2 Mon, 17 Oct 2011 20:05:52 +0000 Sam_Mallery 1202@/talks/discussions

Most of the video was shot with the regular GH2 firmware (and the 20mm Lumix G lens), but the very last shot was done with the GH2vk hack, using the cbrandin's 66mb patch. I hope you find it helpful!

This was performed at NAB 2011.

It has one more citing of 4:4:4 output capability.

Considering the price, features, image quality FS100 is better than AF100 in many applications.]]>
