30p in FCP4??

[Guest]

In shooting with the 30P mode, what FCP4 capture settings, ie FPS, do you use? In regard to same 30P mode, what settings allow you to view captured footage out through firewire and an external monitor? ??? :-/

Just use the standard NTSC DV (29.97) settings. Treat the footage as normal interlaced footage and you will have no problems. After all, 30P is actually 29.97P.
