Capturing 30 frame progressive
Hi I plan on shooting in 30fps progressive using a Canon and I want to know when capturing what settings I use since I “believe” I don’t need to do any pulldown right?
Or does FCP give this as a settings for 30 progressive?
Thanks

I can’t speak for Canon tapes, but I’ve digitized Sony and Panasonic 30p tapes through FCP, no pulldown required on ingest (Easy Setup for DV-NTSC works fine).

so when you say NTSC DV does it give option of 30fps? If it did it would mean FCP knows it is progressive is that right?

When you do the setup, you’ll be capturing at 29.97fps. All (well, I’m pretty sure) progressive footage that’s shot on tape with the Panasonics and Sony cameras records at 29.97 and has progressive fields. If you shoot pA, that’s when you have to pulldown on the fly and get a 23.98 file.The footage will play back in a 29.97 footage and have the look and feel of progressive. FCP knows it’s progressive.
