Those of us using the HV20 have dealt with this issue for a year.
First thing to understand about 24p is camera movement has to be planned to avoid the stutters. Any camera shooting 24fps will show similar issues on pans.
Second thing is to shoot a 1/48th shutter speed. This emulates a 180 degree shutter of a film camera and is the best combination of motion blur for smoother looking 24p.
Third is to use the Cine mode, rather than in TV or A modes. In this mode you will lose control of shutter and aperature, but if you review HV20 thread you will learn the camera tries like heck to stay at 1/48th. And you can check it before shooting by depressing the snapshot button part way and you will see what shutter speed and aperature are set at. Then do adjust, you toggle to the exposure, and raise and lower exposure, and check with that method above.
Fourth, on the PC I use Cineform HDV. Set up properly, it captures and converts everything to a true 24p avi file. I understand it is available for MAC too, now, so it should work the same. The files produces are 3x larger, but a lot less lossy than editing in HDV. I highly recommend it.
