[Craig Seeman] “As may Blackmagic (take years) or are you saying BM is faster at delivery than RED. I assumed you meant they were slower.”
They started to talk about Epic and Scarlet soon after they released the first RED ONE (2007).
They didn’t start shipping till 2011.

[Craig Seeman] “No worries though, their new cameras won’t be delivered until 2016”
[Craig Seeman] “[Rafael Amador] “Whatever the wait, it won’t ever be like for the REDs.”Let us know when RED has a $4000 camera.
How is that a comparison?”
Craig,
I wan’t comparing cameras.
I was talking about the waiting time from announcement to release.
Epic and Scarlet took years.

Whatever the wait, it won’t ever be like for the REDs.

Jason,
If you are shooting for a DVD, its makes no much sense to shoot 1080, unless you intend to pan or zoom..
720 will let you reframe, if needed, and won’t force to make a big downscaling.

[Alex Ojeda] “What software would you recommend to deinterlace?”
I think de-interlacing in FCPX is OK, but you better ask in the FCPX forum.
[Alex Ojeda] “To convert 60p to 30p, I just create a 30p project and drop the 60p footage onto the timeline, right?”
Right.[Alex Ojeda] “Hmmm… I drop the footage in the timeline, try to set it at 1440×1080/60i, as the raw original, and it doesn’t let me, it takes it to 1440×1080/30i. Theres no 60i as an option.”
i30 and i60 is the same.
The proper term is i30 : Means 30 interlaced frames.

AIC is a poor codec and will add compression to the already very compressed MTS stuff.
Get a HD and transcode the MTS files to Prores.
The XDCAM stuff cab e edited without problems in the Prores sequence.

[Alex Ojeda] “The first I have in 1440×1080/60i and I need the edit of that to be played on the internet and DVD.”
the faster way is to edit that as it is and deinterlace the web version. The DVD is Ok interlaced. You can deinterlace everything and edit progressive; DVDs will look better when played on computers.[Alex Ojeda] “The second I have in 1920×1080/60p (PS HD) and I need this to be played on a large screen via projector + PC at an event. High Res.”
Not sure if projectors will be able to display 1080p60. Probably i would drop that in a p30 sequence and go.[Alex Ojeda] “Should I just transcode to Prores with FCP X, create each project in FCP X with original settings 1440×1080/60i and 1920×1080/60p, and export for this three different outputs?”
No need to convert to Prores in for FCPX. Should take the footage as it is.
