hey gary,
thanks a lot for your reply. that is actually the workflow i ended up with. i have tried both, setting the 5800 to 25psf and to 50i, capturing with 50i in final cut and removing the fields afterwards. the result is the same, since there are no fields in the original footage. my problem is working with it afterwards. i was just trying to make sure, that im not doing something wrong in the capturing process, because i still have “artifacts” in a couple of shots that look like typical field order problems. it occurs mostly when there is a lot of detail in the picture, for example a lot of rooftops, etc. in addition, everything that is shot vertically/has fast camera movement has a very unpleasant shutter problem. as long as im working on a 25p timeline that is. 50i gets rid of the shutter problem, because obviously it is always better and smoother for fast movement. im just clueless on how to continue working on a progressive timeline, since i have to master on 35mm. the only solution so far is 720p50 as 1080p50 doesnt really exist, at least it is not accepted by the laboratory that will master the film..
