Here in New Zealand I hire a Scan Converter for $140 per day from my local A/V supplier and put it in-between my source deck and my DSR 25 DVcam deck. I set the scan converter to PAL in and NTSC out and set my DSR25 to NTSC for recording.

There are some software based converters out there but you cant beat the speed of hardware convertion as oppossed to software. Maybe someone know of a really fast program for converting?
