  • Any/All Konas remove 3:2 pulldown on the fly?

    Posted by Jim Blokland on November 20, 2008 at 8:37 pm

    Hi folks:

    Can’t seem to find the answer on the Kona site — I’ve got telecined footage coming in on DVCAM. Can the Kona remove the 3:2 pulldown on the fly during ingest?

    Thanks in advance.

    Best, JIM.

    Yes, but it has to be setup properly. All captures must begin on ‘A’ frame so that they pulldown can be removed successfully.

    Hey Jeremy:

    Thanks for your reply. One further question: if I’m getting ALE files from the transfer house, they would automatically make sure each clip begins on a A frame, right? if so, I could just batch digitize from that list once it’s imported into Cinema Tools and be good to go?

    Thanks in advance.

    Best, JIM.

    I would check with your post-house and not just assume this is the case. Every post-house works differently and has different practices. Better safe then sorry.

    best regards,

    I agree with Jeremy N. In theory, though, yes. That is exactly what would happen.
