720/24pn footage export.

[Mj882]

I have shot footage in 720/24pn, 180 shutter speed, 24fps on the Panasonic HPX171e....however when I exported the video it did not come as so good.

Can anyone recommend the settings for exporting please

I also used the Letus35 Elite adapter if that makes a difference.

Need more info. Which version of Premiere? What were the sequence settings?

How did you export it (codec, settings, etc.)? What was wrong with it when you exported?

I used CS3 but I had updated it so the DVCPRO presets were available. I am going to install CS4 tomorrow hopefully.

I exported using both HD anamorphic and DVCPRO HD, both didn't seem to look 'right' but I could be wrong.

AVI for the file type and Cinepak Codec by Radius for compressor.

What didn't look "right" about it?

Do those settings sound fine? It was squashed with the DVCPRO HD.

Any recommendations for the perfect setting to export? Baring in mind I want it to look as filmic as possible.

What are you trying to export FOR?

I'm not too sure what you mean by this, could you be a little more specific.

DVD, web, etc.

Onto the PC...Does that make the quality worse?

Cinepak is a terrible compressor. Use something else.

It's good information for compression.
