If with the Panasonic I shoot for one minute at 48fps, the resulting clip when I bring it into FCP is 2 minutes long at 23.98. So going by that, I should be able to speed up the velocity to 200% and get a clip that plays just as if it was shot in 24P, right?

Right, but by changing the speed at which the footage plays back, I should be able to make it play as if I shot it at the normal frame rate. That’s why I don’t understand why it doesn’t sync up when I speed it up 200%.
Either it needs to be a more exact number (like 201.10% for example) or there’s something major I’m missing.

Since I shot the Panasonic footage in 48fps (slow motion) it already appears in the timeline as 23.98. So it doesn’t seem to be the frame rate that’s the problem but the velocity at which the clip is played back.
I’m able to successfully sync the 7D footage to an audio track that was recorded separately at the shoot. No matter what percentage I speed the Panasonic footage to I can’t get it to conform to either that separate audio track nor the 7D footage.

wow, that was exactly what I needed to know. Thanks so much!

I’m rendering this to be uploaded online; that’s why I’d like it to not contain the “letterboxing” and just be the shape of the images.

Okay, do I keep all the presets the same or just check the anamorphic box? Keep in mind, I don’t want an anamorphic file (one that gets squeezed then unsqueezed by a DVD player) but a video file that’s undistorted and that shape. I’m not sure if this is even possible.

I want the final video file to be the aspect ratio of the red images; none of the black on the top and bottom.

I’ve considered tape as a secondary backup. Right now I just gotta get all this raw footage off my hard drives. Thanks for answering the question!

That was a lot of help. Thanks!
