DV noob here.
Does the Sony VX-2100 video in interlaced or progressive scan?
Also, this either need to be captured a certain way?
Any tips suggestions appreciated.

Shoots in interlaced. Does have a 15fps progressive mode good for stills unless you are looking for a motion blur effect to your footage. I would stick with the normal interlaced footage and possibly de-interlace in post if you are going for that effect. A big tip would be to read all the posts here on the forums. All topics are covered more than once. Have fun with the VX and read the owners manual a few times as well.

I have been looking through a bit, nice forum, good info in here. And don't worry about the manual, i'll definetly read it more than a few times. I usually always read the manuals on every electronics I buy. Even PS2's and Gameboy's, stuff no one reads!
