any one using Sony Handycam HDR-AX2000 Camcorder

Post by johno »

i'm thinking of buying a high def camcorder the Sony HDR-AX2000. has anyone used this camcorder and if so, how easy is it to input footage to the cassie editors. the ax2000 is a tapeless camcorder and has firewire and usb outputs.

You might want to check the HDR-AX2000's stats again, I don't believe the AX2000 has firewire.

It has some sort of sub jack for component that looks like a firewire jack, but isn't.

That said, as long as you are using a Bogart system the USB method should work fine and I have always found the Sony line to be imminently compatible with all MSUS editors.

I can't speak towards the HDR-AX2000 specifically though, perhaps someone else here has first person experience with it.
My mom always told me that happiness was the key to life.
At school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I said “happy" and they told me I didn’t understand the question.
I told them they didn’t understand life.

No firewire and this is the baby brother of the NX-5. Some are reporting file break-up problems in BOGART with the NX-5 so be cautious.

I use the NX-5 and I can't even load a HD file into the 4000. It will only take SD from the NX-5.
