Connecting a Sony Z1U to FCP 7?

I know everybody is glued to the game, but has anyone else had troubles connecting a Sony Z1U camera to FCP?

I'm trying to capture a couple of tapes of stuff (in the background, while the Super Bowl is going on), but I can't get FCP to recognize the camera. I keep getting the dreaded 'unable to initialize camera' error message.

I've got my capture preset to "NTSC firewire" and "DVCPROHD 1080i60", which matches the tape settings. Is there something in the camera menu that I need to configure to setup? Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks!

Jeff

Nevermind... Post-game I found a menu in "Audio/Video Settings" with a Sony-specific capture setting that wasn't in the log-and-capture tool. Odd, but it works.
