Greg,

I do the same thing. I shoot at CF25 (I'm in PAL land) and when I capture, I put it in a basic 50i project. It comes out fantastic.

Just keep in mind, you are still shooting the basic 50, or 60 interlaced feilds a second, the difference is just swome fancy shmancy effect added (or subtracted to be more accurate.)
