cine alta

[Michael Brennan]

SInce the f350 does not have a progressve ccd and incamera processing converts it to progressive there is a real loss of resolution in progressive mode as well as a slight delay in viewfinder.

This is not the best camera for filmout because of this.
May I suggest you test shooting interlace then deinterlace in post, this may be better than shooting progresive in camera (probably not but worth a try)

Also if you have a lot of static wide shots of landscapes city scapes ect consider shooting these in interlace mode as interlace movement is not noticible in a static frame with small movements happening within frame.

Doing any of the above needs agreement with post house!
Get the best lens possible.
Let us know if you try any of the above.
I would think a true progressive digital SD camera with HD lens or the 720p cameras from Panasonic would deliver a more pleasing result (for similar money?)
