What is best for YouTube and Vimeo
I have been shooting all my YouTube video in 60i, on both my Canon A1, and HV30. I read somewhere that 24p was better to use for the web, so I shot everything in 24p on my HV30 and 24f on my A1. I used the same compression settings for 24fp as I used on the 60i and saw a huge improvement in my Youtube videos.
After a call to Canon about another problem, I mentioned the improvement of 24 verse 60i for the web. The fellow at Canon said I should shoot in 30f and I would see a better improvement over 24pf when I upload to the web, because Youtube uses 15f and the 30p converts more easily to YouTube's 15f. Is this correct? |

It sounds right. If you stay with 30f my guess would be a little better looking video.

I shoot in 30p almost exclusively and it looks fantastic on YouTube and on dvd. That's with my HV30. I'm not to crazy about 24 or 30 with my XL2 though.
