Shooting 60fps, editing 24
We are editing in Final Cut Pro 5.1.2, and normally shooting DVCPRO HD in 60i on the panasonic AJ-HDX900. Our normal route is to import>Panasonic P2 and it comes in as 29.97. We then use the reverse telecine from Cinema Tools to bring it back to 24 for editing. What is our route when we crank the camera to 60fps? Cinema tools doesn’t like it. Final cut pro doesn’t like it. There isn’t an import option of 1080/60p. We obviously shot it this way to create slo-mo…I read that perhaps we need to download a file from panasonic, but that was referring to an older model of camera.
We’re at a bit of a loss here when shooting varispeed. Any help would be appreciated!Thanks,

Are you sure you are shooting 1080? Over and under cranking is usually done in 720p.

Sorry
the HDX 900 cannot do variable speed captures, Panasonic cameras only support variable frame rate acquisition in the Varicam and HVX200 models. In both camera models VFR is only on 720p content,gary adcock

How are you using the import P2 feature when the HDX900 is a tape based (not P2) DVCPRO HD camera?
