I use a JVC HD111E camera for a lot of my everyday work. Normally I use the Quicktime files recorded to the onboard Firestore DR-HD100, every now again however I need to import from the videotape into Final Cut Pro 6.
Bringing the files in as Apple ProRes via firewire works very smoothly, retaining the original camera timecode and the loss of only 6 frames of video between each camera start stop.
Here’s a video of the workflow I use.
