Converting 60i to 24p. A real world Case Study

I wonder what you guys are referring to as "flickering." I have noticed some strobiness even when deinterlacing 50i footage to 25p with Shake (same logic as Compressor). I wrote it off as possibly a simple case of high shutter speed. Try a slower shutter.
 
As far as I'm aware, Qumonstro, the in camera sharpening on the VX2000/PD150/PD170 must be turned off in order to avoid strobiness.
 
Instead of using Magic Bullet I have tried out Twixtor3Pro for After Effects and I must say its better than MB. From my own results thats what I have drawn from my own tests. It has way more options for Deinterlacing, Frame Rate Converting, etc. I highly recommend you try both to see for yourself. Deinterlacing 60i to 60p then to 24p is a great thing especially when with 60p you can slow your clip down to almost a quarter of the speed. Try both, then choose.
