Gene,

I have captured Canon HDV (1080i and F modes) to FCP in a variety of formats via SDI and a Kona LH card, and I can tell you from my own experiences that you really don't gain any quality...

I should put up a better one. The girl jumping on the trampoline probably should've been shot with a faster shutter speed.

Don't forget FCP will actually output 24F natively back to tape. True 24p sequences back to tape.

It's actually FCP 5.1.2 that has 24F support, currently.

Karen,

HDV 30F works the same way that you could capture and edit "old" XL1 30 fps frame mode material in a DV 29.97 480i timeline.

The difference now is that the new FCP update has specific...

FCP 5.1.2 and HDV 24F--IT WORKS!

Just wanted to say I finally got FCP upgraded to the latest version and have been testing the new "HDV 1080 24p" (Canon HDV 24F) support.

It works great! I have a G5 dual 2.7 and the whole thing...

Jonas,

My trick is to put a 1080i clip into a custom 1080 60p (50p for you) sequence. Usually I make it an uncompressed timeline to minimize conversion artifacts. (most slow mo clips are short...

Sure, I was just trying to point out some ways to actually project 24F in HD.

You can always export 24F footage into SD formats and burn a DVD from it.

it's best to project 24F HDV from a computer if you can bring a laptop or wheel a workstation into the projection booth.

If not, it's possible to make an HD-DVD and use the Toshiba HD DVD player.

I've found that with good software interpolation, converting the 60 interlace fields into frames can make for very convincing "overcrank" slow mo. It isn't perfect in the 1080 frame, but I think it...

Maybe it was the slightly slower shutter speed I used. Try this: http://www.realm.cc/upload/Elton/BackyardMeltdown.mov

It was converted to 720p.

Shoot 1080i and convert fields to frames with AE or FCP and a Nattress plug-in. It can look really good.

1080p "overcrank" slow mo from the XL-H1 :)

SD mode on the XL-H1 in 24 fps is "true 24p" too. There is enough resolution in a single 1080i field to slice out a 24p SD frame.
