Focus Enhancements FS-100 now fully supports 720/24p
Published by Matthew Jeppsen February 1st, 2007 in Formats, Hardware, News, ProductionTo date, when shooting with the Firestore FS100 all HVX200 footage was captured on disk as 720/60p (even when shooting native 720 24p). Record time was 100 minutes. This latest 3.0 update from Focus Enhancements doubles record time to 200 minutes of footage at native frame rates.
Version 3.0 adds native DVCPRO HD 720/24p, 25p and 30p recording capabilities, which more than doubles the record time on the FS-100. In addition, version 3.0 adds native QuickTime® DVCPRO 50 and DVCPRO HD recording capabilities, which allows for direct import of clips into Apple’s Final Cut Pro nonlinear editing application.
Current Firestore users can get the version 3 update at www.focusinfo.com for $39. Units manufactured after today will ship with the new revision.

I used the FS-100 for a number of months with chronic issues and terrible support. As an accomplished videograher who has worked with this unit and was forced to finally sell it (now using the P2 cards), I suggest you avoid the firestore at all costs (yes, the p2 is much more expensive but so much more stable).
FOR YOUR SANITY - AVOID THE FIRESTORE.
The kicker - they are charging for the update… A nominal, but symbolic fee nonetheless. I pitty you if you’re still using this device.

Can the Firestore record DVCPRO HD from a Sony HVR-V1U?….ie does it just record the format or record “to” the format?
