John,
Thank you for reply. For the most part, I will be just capturing the everyday world around me (so 1080i). However, my grandsons are heavily involved in soccer (so 1080p). What do I do if I want to combine them both in the same video? I know I initially said a “simple” question, perhaps I should now change it to a “dumb” question. Thanks again for your time and help.
Your second paragraph totally lost me. As I mentioned, I am an amateur/hobbist and will I ever need 1080-30p or 24p? I am not trying to be smart but just curious.
Bob
