As posted elsewhere, check out this photo which shows the "easy setups" in 5.1.2
http://ibc.mikkowilson.com/photos/Da...s/IMG_3929.htm The highlighted one says HDV 1080p25, and the one right above it says HDV 1080p24. Presumably that means Canon's 24F. |

I'm wondering why there's no 1080 30p (30F) preset? 30F can be captured and edited in a regular HDV 60i timeline but anytime you render anything it will have interlace issues.
I suppose one can change the timeline to a different codec when finishing (like uncompressed 4:2:2) and then encode to a distribution codec like h.264 or WMV HD, but it doesn't make sense that there wouldn't be a 30p easy preset. |
