DVCPRO HD – 720/25p capture via Firewire

[Walter Biscardi]

Go into your Sequence Settings, choose the DVCPro 720/24 preset, then go into the settings and change the frame rate to 25. It’s one of the choices in the drop down menu.

You can do the same with the Capture Settings or use the Frame Rate Converter to pull the 25 out of a 60 capture.

We shot 25 here for about 1/2 of our independent film to dial in the NTSC and computer monitor. I used the Frame Rate Converter to convert all the footage over to 23.98 for edit in a 720/24 timeline. It worked perfectly.

Thanks for your help, sounds easy 🙂
Now when we capture some of the content with the 720p60 capture setting to disk and import that into a 720p25 project would that give us slomo, since the cam records always 60p.

thanks again
