Now that I can import videos from HDC-SD9 in 1080p/24p mode using Final Cut Pro correctly, I’d like to share a brief video clip from this camcorder.

Check out the video quality taken using HDC-SD9, however short it may be. (QuickTime 7 required)

  • H.264 8.82mbits/s

  • Imported using Final Cut Pro 6.0.3 and Perian 1.1
  • Exported using Compressor 3.0.3

Apparently I posted a Apple Pro Res 422 encoded earlier. It looked great but not many people could play it.

Panasonic HDC-SD9: Screen Capture

Despite its compatibility problem with Mac OS X, Panasonic HDC-SD9 is a great HD camcorder. If you are using Macs and wanting to get this camera, it is best to wait until Apple releases updates to iMovie ’08, Final Cut Express 4, and Final Cut Pro 6.

In the meantime, check out the screen capture from Panasonic HDC-SD9 and compare it to the one from Panasonic HDC-SD5. Notice the interlacing on Panasonic HDC-SD5 screen capture.
