So it'd be better to shoot 720/25P than 1080/25P in some situations?

I think the 720p would handle the motion a bit better but not so much more than to give up the extra resolution. I would have to see both videos side by side, but maybe it would be better to shoot in 720p, considering that scenario. But then again if the codec is efficient enough like AVC-intra, I don't think you will see any percieved motion artifacts shooting in either, 1080p or 720p, so I guess I would stick with 1080p.
