Thanks for the replies everyone, it's really helpful info.

Our Canon XL2 has finally died and we're looking at replacing this with a Panasonic HVX204. Has anyone perhaps had experience using this camera with Avid? Are they compatible and are there any issues I should be aware of? We also shoot a lot of P2 on two HPX500s so a "small format" camera that handles both DV tape and P2 cards is quite

Guys, are there any Nitris DX hardware or firmware updates available? If so, can someone point me at them please. I love the DX but honestly, the analog audio on this thing needs serious help.
