Which Blackmagic Product Should I Buy?

PostFri May 17, 2013 1:45 am

Hi, everyone! ;)
I have a Mac Mini (OSX 10.8.3, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7, 8GB 1333 MHz DDR3) and I need to capture live video (either from the TV or the satellite box to use with the new Final Cut Pro X (10.0.8).

I've been told by Final Cut Pro X experts that in order to capture live video like I'm used to do with Final Cut Studio Pro 7 (command-8, or "capture now"), I need a box with Firewire. They said and I quote: "You can capture any live source that can be attached via FireWire. You can capture ANY video source using a Blackmagic or AJA interface card."

OK, so... Which Blackmagic product will allow me to do that?

I'd really appreciate any answers related to this question. I'd like to buy this product ASAP.
