Timebase mystery

[Ron Craig]

HI Gary,

Well, the strange thing is that the camera actually was shooting at 59.94. The shots came into FCP as 29.97 because of an error on my part in the Log & Transfer settings (which Michael Sacci figured out). I have now been able to re-transfer all those shots into FCP as 59.94.

So…and again this is just conversational at this point…I am just wondering why the bars were transferred into FCP as 59.95 (despite my setting error), while the shots came in as 29.97.

This is just curious; not worth wasting any brain cells over.
