It is relatively easy to move from QTKit to AVFoundation.

Look at the Apple supplied AVRecorder sample.
You need to define inputs and outputs for the session.
Then you need to configure the assigned AVCaptureOutput subclass delegate in
order receive delegate callbacks such as those defined by
AVCaptureFileOutputRecordingDelegate
movieFileOutput = [[AVCaptureMovieFileOutput alloc] init];
[movieFileOutput setDelegate:self];
[session addOutput:movieFileOutput];
You might want to check out the AVCaptureVideoDataOutput AVCaptureOutput
subclass and AVCaptureVideoDataOutputSampleBufferDelegate.
