The Sony DR60 and the new “Memory Recording Unit” (as part of the HVR-Z7U) return standard M2T files in HDV mode. That’s a problem if you want to use them with Final Cut.
Or, it used to be. Today they’ve released their plugin to rewrap M2T files in Quicktime to work with Final Cut. This was mentioned in the Final Cut 6.0.2 release notes, but was previously unavailable.
Get it here, and enjoy your tapeless workflow. So long Focus, so long …
