Can someone smarter than me please give a definitive answer to this:
How should I export? With upper or lower field first?
Some say it's different for PAL & NTSC, others say it's not. Some say it's different for DV & HDV, others say it's not.
I shoot on a Z1 & a V1 in 50i and export to 50i at HDV.
Sometimes I shrink to SD at 50i.
Othertimes I de-interlace to 25p in premiere pro or I shoot in 25p on the V1 or CF25 on the Z1, which I'm failry certain I'm supposed to set to no fields.
But when editing interlaced footage, what the heck do I tell it to do?
