25F OR 50i for FILMOUT ?
 

SORRY ACCIDENTAL 2ND POST!


Firstly many thanks to everyone who create a great source of shared info.I have been reading these boards now for over 6 months.
Sorry if this has been addressed fully but I couldn't seem to find a definitive answer.

I am on the verge of going for the canon xl h1 but am struggling with which way to go for our first feature.

Should I use 25f or 50i for a feature project in PAL land. I have really like the 24f I have been watching and so wouldlike to do as much look ' in camera' where possible.

I know FCP does not properly support 24for 25f but is there a fundamental problem using this f for filmout once the workflow is sorted?

My setup is quad g5;FCP.

Big factor is shoot we in March with the editor editing while we shoot. So FCP 6 is still not with us for this edit.


In a sentence what is the word on 25f versus 50i for filmout.

Many thanks for your thoughts.
