We are in Tahiti for 3 weeks, shooting interviews and landscapes as well as handheld with people doing various activities involving climbing trees for fruit, etc. (a lot of motion) and cooking activities. It involves documenting traditional cultural practices and how they have evolved in the modern world. Interviews and landscapes should be no problem, but I’m a little nervous about the handheld at 24p. Shot some 24p with the DVX-100. Would 60i/24p mixed timeline cause problems? Also, haven’t posted 24p timelines before. I’m pretty new to Final Cut.

It’s not that I’m inexperienced, I’ve got 36 years of broadcast experience, including some of the first portable video to be aired in the mid 70’s and the first filmstyle video in the mid to late 70’s with Hollywood and San Fran film crews. One Pass Video in San Francisco and WTTW PBS in Chicago. I was the only Avid dealer in Hawaii for 5 years, before Final Cut. So much for the resume.

Just want to make sure that I come back with useable stuff that is not going to cause tremendous headaches in post.

Really appreciate your input.

Thanks again.

Thanks Jeremy, I’ll do some 24p tests tomorrow and see if I can get used to it. I only have one day before I leave. I’ve been struggling with this one for quite a while. I’m going to have to be a lot more careful with my camera moves.

Thanks Jeremy.

That just about makes up my mind to stick with 1080i60.

One other possibility raises its head though. What about shooting 1080p30, converting to 1080i60 with ioHD in Final Cut or via EX-1 SDI out direct (supposed to be 1080i out)in to ProRes HQ, and at some point going to PAL from there? Does that make any sense or would the double conversion (ioHD/externtal hardware device) lose too much quality?

Thanks again in advance.

Thanks for the responses. Craig, would you mind elaborating as to why 1080i29.97 is easier to convert than 1080p30? What are the headaches you mention with 30p? I was leaning toward 1080p30, but would like to hear your experience. Also, do you know if with the EX1 if the 30p is actually true progressive or pSF? Or 29.97p/pSF and not true 30p, for that matter. Thanks in advance.

I use the Panasonic AG-DV2000. Would like to see it supported. Runs on XR with “Generic DVcam” I believe, but not in studio to check.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies. Looks like it was an internal deck problem. Will know when part arrives next week. All these things are good to know.

Yes, there were yellow boxes on the audio. The audio was connected. Maybe a deck output problem?

Thanks

Jan and Barry, Would the Firewire out also have the downconversion? I have no need for analog on this deck at the moment. SDI possibly. Is the downconversion letterboxed, and how would you judge it’s quality? This is a setup I am seriously considering, having already ordered the HVX-200. The SD-93 would seem to be a great way to distribute SD versions on DVCPro 50 and have the HD for future use.
