Well, to be precise, it's 24p over 60i, much like a DVX in standard 24p mode, but now in HD. It's actually too bad they didn't include a 30p mode too.

As far as I can tell, it doesn't drop any...

Good news! Like everyone one else, I expected it to work because it's advertised to playback the frame modes...but it's good to note a succesful user experience. :)

Chris,

I've got the footage but I believe something's changed with the server. Sent you an email.

Kyle,

You might not have the camera's VTR settings set to HDV or auto playback. Got to the VTR menu (with the camera unplugged from the computer) and select HDV playback. Then do the FCP HDV 1080p...

It's a PITA, but the method I've found that works the best is to create self contained QT's of your different clips, where each clip has the same cadence by starting/making the in point...

Yes, but I get smoother slower results from deinterlaced 1080i. Think of 1080i HDV as 1440x540 at 60 fps. If you extract the fields properly you get a lot more temporal...

It's not an original. It's from a cheesy 80's synth soundtrack. I'm still waiting for somebody to identify it.

Jeff,

I wouldn't worry about it. Most current HD projectors (720 or 1080) will accept a 1080i source, and many if not most have 3:2 pulldown extraction capabilities. Heck, my nearly 4 year old...

I'd say the easiest thing to do would be to output 24F back to tape via FCP and playback from the XH-A1 at the event. Make sure that the projector is compatible with 1080i signals (from the camera's...

The HVX and A1 have similar sensitivity, but a different rendition of noise. Basically, the A1's noise is finer, grittier, more luma whereas the HVX has more swimming, larger-sized chroma noise.

The XL-H1, XH-A1 and XH-G1 employ horizontal pixel shift to achieve a 1920x1080 image internally before scrunching back down to the HDV 1440x1080 format.

Final Cut Pro will print an HDV 24F sequence back to tape as 24F. (no pulldown)

It is true 24p back to tape.
