should i choose upper field first when capturing from HDR-FX1?

is that the correct process? or does it matter if i choose upper or lower field first?

Yes, all flavors of interlaced HD are upper field. Makes things simple to remember.

Exception would be when using CF30 and CF25 material, you can treat it as frame, or progressive.
