D90 and FCE Easy set-up

So I shoot a video with the D90.

Convert the files in MPEG Streamclip to Apple Intermediate Codec 1280x720(unscaled), put no number in frame rate so I assume it stays at 24fps, quality at 50%.

Here is my question how should easy set-up be set in FCE.

If I put it at HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 720p30 I end up with a .mov that is 720x480 29.97fps, so not full size. Seems like it should be 1280x720?

So if I put it at HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60 I end up with a .mov that is 1920x1080 29.97fps. Is this where it should be set?

I am trying to end up with the full rez the camera can do no more no less.
 
This works for me after Stremaclip with no rendering and full D90 frame (I'm still using FCP 4.x s no intermediate codec available):

create a new sequence and drop your footage from streamclip into it. FCP should ask you if you want to change the sequence settings to match the footage. Allow it to do so and everything should work.
