1080i60i question

Howdy-

I have an upcoming project where I will need to shoot 1080i60i- I want it to have an "infomercial" look to it.

I had shot in this format many times when i first got the camera, so I know I've done this before.

I tried some test shots out and everything worked fine in camera. It had that "video" quality that I'm looking for. The clip details in the camera said 59.94 for the frame rate.

When I transferred it over to FCP, it went directly to 29.97. I figure there must be a setting here I'm missing to ensure it stays at 59.94. But shouldn't it recognize the clip as 59.94 and stay that way?

Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Thank you, Cranky. I will go with 720p60, then.

I don't see why. Both 720p60 and 1080i60 have the same 60 images per second rate. Though progressive is just easier to work with, in particular to scale and to deliver via the Web.
 
Well, I was trying to go with a particular look. I agree the 30p is better for the web, though. I will probably go that route in the end.

Thanks again for the advice.
