can I shoot hi speed (say 240fps) in black and white or must I use an editor ?

I have had the Casio for about a year, there are no 'artistic' effects in movie mode as far as I have ever seen (and I just looked at the camera right now... and still don't see any).

Only ever used in in 23.99 fps mode. I don't even know if it does high frame rate.

yep, just go through the scene function and find "black and white copy". you can also go into the special effects for high-contrast monochrome.

Depends on what you need. 45mb/s works well for just portraits. And even fine for speed as long as you shoot in jpeg. But I was shooting fast in RAW on full frame and 45 was not doing it for me. But if it says 45 then it is. But if you have no problems no need to upgrade

NO, do NOT get a MAC. Overpriced and WAY over-hyped. I can edit 60p with ZERO chop on one of my meager core-duo laptops at 1.8ghz, with effects and PIP's, etc. no problem. You probably are not optimally configured both in hardware and software. What kind of hard drive do you have? This is a very likely culprit. I typically only edit on RAID0 configs because of their awesome speed, and this is where the bottle-neck is really. Also, get some real editing software. I've been using Edius for 10+ years now, and it is simply THE BEST NLE software I have ever used bar none (Vegas, Avid, Premiere Pro through CS4, and yes (sigh) Final Crap Pro). It is incredibly fast, stable, and supports mixed formats and more on a single timeline. Best wishes in any case.

Yes. You actually get a choice of "regular" monochrome which mimics black and white film images or dynamic black and white (which makes very black blacks and very white whites). You get to the first kind of b&w; through the menu or quick menu. The more dramatic version you get through using the color or paint palette section of the dial on the top of the camera where you choose iA or Program or Aperture preferred, etc.

yes.but if you Shooting at 1280x720 30 fps,48KHz/16 bit,the time is 1 hour.

http://dmc.wisc.edu/media/manuals/efl/canon_hg10.pdfThere are also a few tweaks you need to do to get decent video...someone wrote an article about it...google is your friend. The main thing is turning off the A.SL Shutter (Automatic Slow Shutter) feature in the menu.

I ended up going with Adobe Premiere CS5. I'm setting up a two drive (2TB x2, 7200RPM) RAID-0 setup in an external enclosure hooked up via eSATA as a dedicated video editing drive. Hopefully this will allow everything to run nice and smooth. I'd like to edit in 1080/60p and then have the option to finalize in different formats. For now, either 720/60p or 1080/60i would likely make the most sense for Bluray authoring.

You can use as you want. Usually I use it as 2D and HD moves are very good. Only do not forget about sound, it should be organized separately.

Nope, not for the PC version. I do recommend an analog controller to take advantage of the shooting and passing features. (if you use those features)

Yes you can use with older FCP or any digital editing system using QuickTime or AVI. You can select HD (mpeg2) or SD (DV). SD bit rate of 60i at a resolution of 720x480 and aspect ratios 4:3 or 16:9. Recording on two SDHC removable chips. I hoped that helps you. Greg

Marty, Yes, it will take black and white. These are the modes: vivid, full, and basic color, black & white, and sepia. Turn your camera ON. Next, hit the button next to it, the middle button on the top (It has a picture of a camera and a video camera on it). You will see Smart Capture, Video, Program, then Scenes on the drop down list. Using the toggle button go down and select SCENES by hitting the center button on the toggle switch. In the SCENES mode, you will see all the little pics. DO NOT select any of them. While on this screen, hit the SETTINGS button on the right (It looks like a square with lines in it). It will take you to a screen that has CAPTURE/SETUP at the top. Under CAPTURE, toggle down and select COLOR MODE. Use the toggle side buttons &lt; or &gt; to select the color mode you want. Sepia, Vivid, B&W, etc. Hope that helps. If it does not help, click my name and my email is on my profile. Send me an email and I will make a video on how to do it. I will not be able to do the video until Wednesday. Good luck.

Yes to fine tune...or adjust to different flash's with or without triggers.

That is the problem...you can't do rapid frames. The camera looks great, feels great to hold, but if you need something to capture a fast paced activity, this isn't the one for you. I like it and recommend it for a very casual user, however will be upgrading to a more advanced piece of equipment as soon as my budget allows.

Not sure, you may have to set the recording size to the smallest format: 30fps,

I use Premiere Pro 2.0 with some HD encoders, and VoltaicHD to convert the footage from camera for suitable editing (also to deinterlace)
