I haven’t started the editing yet. I want to make sure I choose the proper parameters first. I’d be grateful for any guidance on that. I can’t change the fact that i have wonderful footage from 2 very different sources.

Thanks Dave,

All sounds good. Only thing I’m reconsidering, however, is to settle on 50 fps for the frame rate of the project rather than 29.97. Reason being that I don’t want to delete frames when down converting the 50fps footage to 29.97. So the problem with this path I chose means I would convert the canon footage from 29.97 up to 50 fps. It will end up repeating frames and messing the sync up. But I like the detail in the visuals. Do u think that’s ok, to use 50fps for the project? Basically I’m afraid I’ll lose something by down converting the flip cam footage from 50 to 29.97fps (btw, it’s not a phone camera, it’s a mini flip camera)

If converting from 50 fps down to 29.97, won’t it end up deleting some frames? ie, less motion detail
