If the image has been imported from the firewire output of the DVCPROHD VTR it exists in the computer, as it did on tape in “native” mode. One can perform a (cuts only) conform by using time code and not having to uncompress the image. This then, is a “lossless” procedure. However, once a mix or any effect is undertaken the data has to be uncompressed and losses occur.
