    My options for shooting are 1080p25 or 720p50. 1080p sure has more pixels and details but when I am downscaling to 720×576 in export, I am not sure if the difference matters. I tend to frame my shots quite carefully, so I don’t need to do that much zooming etc. in post.

    Reinterlacing 50p to 50i seems to result in smoother movement than 25p to 50i, which is why I would prefer shooting with little less pixels&detail. Of course if the detail I am losing when changing from 1080p to 720p is significant even after downscaling, I must reconsider.

    Few additional questions:

    Does it make any difference in quality to shoot 720p or 1080p if I am downscaling to 576i anyways? Reinterlacing 720p50 material should give better results in motion, so I would prefer that.

    In addition: when shooting at 50p frame rate and using Fieldskit reinterlacer to convert that to 50i in PP6, should I set my camera’s aperture to 1/50 or 1/100 in order to maintain smooth filmic motion?

    Quite clear, thank you very much Pierre! Will try this on my next project.
