  Delivering 1080p with Kona LHe

  Posted by Jon Smitherton on July 2, 2010 at 2:55 am

  Hi

  Delivering 1080p 25 from a prores HQ timeline with a Kona LHe card of a Nat Geo doco.

  Searched through the posts – I figured:

  Set Fields to “none” and
  Set geometrics in setup on card to 1080 progressive

  However just rendered a Colour correction of a shot though a person welding through a pipe… and can see aliasing of the silhouetted circle. – this is fine when rendered interlaced.

  so the question is:
  how do I deliver 1080p from a 1080i timeline with this card? does “1080 progressive” drop a field on the way out?

  The majority of my footage is varicam – so is progressive anyway…I assume I would have to de-interlace anything with fields…. do I have to turn off “Frame Blending” for slo mo’s?

  Gee this is confusing – Wish AJA would have a template for this…

  Cheers,
  Jon

  OK
  FIrst off your Panasonic camera shoots P but the playback is as PsF- the transport and playback are interlaced.

  Since you are in PAL set the deck to record normally (as Psf) and your tape will be 50i.
  There is no pulldown in PAL countries it is a straight conversion.

  Hi Gary

  Sorry should of mentioned that I am mastering to HDCam SR. Can they record progressively too? Shouldn’t I still make it progressive before it gets to that point?

  Cheers,
  Jon
