Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 What’s New
Efficient production and tapeless camera support in Adobe OnLocation CS5
Adobe OnLocation CS5 provides an impressive array of production tools to help you shoot better
and faster while saving time and money, both on set and off. New support for tapeless cameras
extend the ways you can use OnLocation in your production workflows.
Spot problems in imported tapeless footage. Thanks to new tapeless camera support, you can
use the comprehensive software waveform monitor and vectorscope as well as the audio spectrum
analyzer in OnLocation to identify image and audio problems in imported files by quickly scanning
your footage for audio pops, clipping, and video overbrights.
Logging with tapeless cameras. Get all the benefits of real-time, on-set logging when working with
tapeless cameras. Simply tell OnLocation which shot is currently recording and then enter notes,
comments, and additional metadata into placeholder clips. Using timecode as a reference, OnLocation
automatically matches the information to the recorded clips when they are imported from the tapeless
media, regardless of whether the camera is tethered to OnLocation on-set or whether the clips are
imported during post-production.
Faster logging with Turbo Comments. While recording, the new Turbo Comments feature lets you add
frequently used wordscast names, sports highlights, and so onwith a single keystroke to log live
action accurately, consistently, and efficiently. OnLocation lets you store up to nine comments with
unique shortcuts, for immediate, timecode-accurate logging.
Comment markers are displayed in
the Field Monitor timeline.
e new Timestamp buon tells
OnLocation when the selected shot
is being recorded, whether or not the
camera is connected to OnLocation.
When tapeless media is imported,
OnLocation automatically matches the
information to the recorded clips.
e Shot List in the Project panel lets you keep track of
locations, In and Out point timecode, and other vital
information, comment on clips, describe and catalog each
shot, indicate camera moves, and automatically capture
information coming from the camera.
e new Media Browser panel displays the contents of your
computer drives. e Media Browser understands the
standard Panasonic P2 and Sony XDCAM directory structure,
so when you browse to a P2 directory, the Media Browser
displays only the importable shots/takes. Likewise, when
you navigate to an XDCAM directory, the Media Browser
displays the importable clips. is saves you from having to
search through the directory structure to nd the content
you want to import.
e Field Monitor displays DV, HDV,
and DVCPRO natively, so unlike your
camera’s viewnder or LCD screen, the
Field Monitor displays video
exactly as it is recorded.
e Vectorscope displays the amount
of color in the video signal for either the
full frame or for a single horizontal line
within a frame.
e Waveform Monitor operates in
YUV or RGB color spaces, so you can
evaluate brightness (luminance) and
saturation levels.
Audio level meters help you keep track of your audio
signal so it doesn’t distort, and pop alerts identify when
sudden surges occur that are too short to register on
meters.
