If you are going to use software to create slo mo its best to shoot 60i. Reason being you loose some temporal resolution by not doing so. Use something that will extract 2 frames per field, fields kit TMPGEnc etc. Bring that into your editor and do any slo-mo effects then render it back out at 30fps progressive. Its usually good down to 20% of normal speed unless you are panning against something that has lots of detail then it tends to look choppy at the slower speeds. Best thing to do is you have the camera to do it is blur the background on any slo mo stuff you are going to do if you are panning. I use the velocity envelopes in Vegas pro 8 to do the actual slo mo. That way its not a sudden slo down you can ramp it up and down for a better effect. Twixtor is good for doing slo-mo but its expensive.
