Artifacts or Aliasing or Codec? Vertical bands in Image

[therager]

Hello,
I have a problem with some footage I shot on an HVX, id like to ask if anyone has seen this or has a solution. This was shot on SD at 24PA DVCPRO on to P2 cards (I know, I should've just shot in 720PN and downconverted...)
Here are two 200% blowups of what im seeing in FCP once its been injested. There are visible vertical bands on sharp edges, particularly on the skin and on those nametags.
My settings on FCP are DV NTSC Anamorphic 23.98fps

The thing is that through a Panasonic fiield monitor it looks fine, its not until I bring it into FCP that I see the vertical bands. On a friends suggestion I made a DVD of 30 seconds of footage to see if it was a display problem, but its still there. Ive tried to injest via firewire and had the same results, using different injest settings.
Anyone know what it is? Any ideas on injest or proper settings to use?
Thanks.

Yep, that's the 4:1:1 color sampling that happens in DV. Once you take it to DVD you aggravate it by turning it into 4:1:0.

You defintiely should have used DVCPRO50 or DVCPRO-HD, that would have avoided the issue entirely.

Experiment with a "chroma blur" filter, it might clean up the problem nicely.

DVCpro is also 4:1:1, in addition to DV.

Thanks guys.
Applied the (Effects - Video Filters - Key) Color Smoothing 4:1:1 filter and it did the trick!
