Hi Ben. As far as I can remember it was no problem. During presentations, I shot run and gun-style footage. During the next presentation, I edited a 2-minute item and showed it let's say 30 minutes later the finished item. Operating the build-in editor needed some training but I was able to accomplish it every demo. This was 23-24 years ago. A world first on board recording and editing. I feel very privileged to have been part of this revolution. I started my career as a film editor long before the digital revolution started, 30 years earlier.
@@poederbach Thank you for the response! It must have been quite the sight coming from film/linear editing to editing right on the camera, it's like Ikegami was way ahead of the curve when it came to editing and the turn around time for stuff like ENG
@@BenJonesVideographer I joined Avid right in it's first year, beginning 1990. I started out in film-editing way back in 1965. We at Avid were thinking about portable NLE from the beginning. It took a while to find the Ikegami/Avid combination. I was an oldie already when joining Avid, most of my colleagues were 10-20 years younger.
I can't even begin to imagine what attempting to edit even a rough cut on that camera would be like!

@@poederbach Well you could tell Avid was staffed by pros with the experience. My preferred editor of choice still to this day!
Very cool, very interesting
Yeah, cool 20 years ago
