Patrick,
I use the Firecracker in two different ways: genlocked into our production
switcher (in composite) and transcoded to Betacam component for
single-framing directly to a Beta-SP deck.
IMNSHO, the Firecracker is better than anything else out there for output
quality — there's no comparison between it and DCTV.
Remember that if you're working in composite, the quality of your encoder
is VERY important. The FC-24 puts out a pristine signal, but it's RGB —
and a cheap encoder will ruin it.
