I am thinking about buying the Action Animator upgrade for my diaquest DQ422 so I can do rotoscoping with one deck an AG-7750 I am wondering if I need or would want the DQ/AA adaptor. I will be getting 3ds r2 which will do rotoscoping in VideoPost, using groups of sequencial targa files(I think). With the DQ/AA adaptor I can run a batch file from VideoPost which will grab a frame, composite it with a sequencial targa file, and then put it back to tape. Without it I would have to grab outside of 3ds, save the frames to sequencial targa, then go to 3ds to composite and edit. If anyone– Kevin Krell…nudge…nudge…wink..wink–can offer some advice or more info on this, I'd appreciate it. Are there other things I should take into consideration (speed, ease)? Other products?
