okay, okay... so I finally discovered 30p. ;-)
on 6-4-2008 (last night) I did a short test of shooting in 30 frames per second progressive for video to show on the Internet as opposed to shooting 60i (which gives 29.97 frames per second interlaced used on television, which I normally shoot for) ... it was a MAJOR difference in quality of the resulting streamed video.
see the test at:

there is a link there to see it in full HD if your Internet connection is robust enough.
I was very pleased.
And check out
http://exposureroom.com, which I use for streaming the video. They do a pretty good job with HD (1280/720).
this video was edited in Adobe Premiere CS3 and exported via Adobe Media Encoded to a 1280 x 720 MP4 file and uploaded to
