A1 Pulldown Formatting

[Ryan]

Im using the A1 on my next short film. I've never used the camera before and Im wondering if I should shoot in 2:3 pulldown or 2:3:3:2. I know its my preferance really but has anyone had any problems with 2:3:3:2 and then removing the pulldown during capturing to edit with true 24 frames?? That's what I'd like to do, would it be a wiser decision?

I'm also using the P + S mini 35. Has anyone tried that out yet with the camera? any warnings or suggestions? Thanks guys..

If you shoot in 24F and downconvert the default pulldown is 2:3. 24F records in discrete frames and require no pulldown. If you shoot in SD then use 2:3:3:2 for better quality. I had no problem the last time I try it.

Ryan, havent seen any images from the mini 35 and A1 as yet, so keep us posted and if viable drop us some screen grabs.

What NLE is your short being edited on?
