I need to deliver footage shot on my EX (1080 24P) to DVCProHD (also 1080 24P)

What's the best way to do this on a Mac - with FCP and Compressor available?

from sequence>file export quicktime (can unchechk make self contained)
bring the quicktime into compressor>the preset is under apple settings>advanced format conversions, choose the codec of choice.

good luck!!

1. Batch them all at once in Compressor
2. Export one at a time in Quicktime Pro
3. MPEG Streamclip

Test some small files and see which one is quickest.
