Don’t forget Sony xpri.

[Herb Sevush] “On the other hand I’m quite happy to learn that I can pretty much ignore HQ for all my editing needs.”
I think if you have a 10-bit source then HQ will be better.

[Dan Riley] “So, from a quality standpoint, and this is my main concern, does native HDCam
look better than native DVDPRO HD? Would I be losing anything going from the
one to the other? And if so, then it seems like the best idea is to capture directly
from HDCam to FCP using the HD Pro Rez HQ format.”ProRes will technically be higher quality. But after downconverting and outputting to digibeta it won’t make any difference. Do whatever is less expensive.

What are you outputting to?

Conform in Cinema Tools, like what Bob said. That’s the way to do it.

Simplest solution of all. Change field dominance to None. This will work in certain scenarios. As Dave mentioned, without knowing what kind of footage your dealing with it’s impossible to say what the best solution is.

Exporting for a PC does not require square pixels. For all QT movies playback aspect can be controlled by hitting Command-J, Video Track, Visual Settings.
