Does anyone have experience originating on 25p and using a 3:2 pulldown to deliver on NTSC , ie. 25p - to 24p - to 60i ?
Is the resulting 25p/60i footage likely to look any different from 24p/60i in terms of image quality and motion/judder. I understand it will play 4% slower which is no problem.
Would I be better off shooting 24p to eliminate the speed change to NTSC, and accept that I will have to change the speed for PAL projects?
Is it best to apply the speed change and pulldown in software (FCP/Mac) or at a dubbing facility in realtime?
I need to deliver 10 hours of unedited footage for the client's NTSC DigiBeta archive, and also use the footage in a PAL broadcast documentary. I am about to buy a HVX, PAL is more practical for me but I am wondering if 24p has significant advantages over 25p in this situation.
There is a similiar thread here, but my case is a little different as I am dealing with hours of footage and delivery to DigiBeta:
