The title almost sounds like the EX1 and Mark II are married by PluralEyes. Thought I would share this small demo between the 2 cameras. This is a test (to compare) between the ex1 (fixed on tripod) and the 5d mark ii. Edited with final cut pro and pluraleyes.
 
What was your work flow to get the 5DM2 30fps to run at the same speed as the EX1
at 29.97 (called 30 by Sony )?

Sorry, not sure which video your referring to?... I follow Philip Bloom's work flow (add 29.97 for the frame rate)

-I use MPEG Streamcip (free download)
-Settings used in the Quicktime Movie Exporter...
Compression is set to Apple XDCAM EX 1080P 30
Quality is set to 100%
Frame rate is 29.97
Deselect Interlaced Scaling

That's it.

Thats what I wanted to know. Usually this process speeds up the audio as well. But that was not an issue for you,right? In Philips description he talked about creating 2 30 fps sequences in the Canon format (one a copy of the other).. To Seq 1 he did what you did to get the video frame rate to 29.97, then he took that speed up video (Seq 1) and married it to sequence 2 which had audio at the normal speed. I believe I am remembering it correctly.

Audio is still new to me with the 5d mark 2. I did not use audio at all from the 5d. That's where Pluraleyes kicks in, takes my ex1 lav mic and syncs it with the 5d. I'll have to review Philip's work flow when it comes to audio from the 5d. Thanks for the reminder : )
 
I think the audio might have been a lot faster, but you could miss the difference because it is very minimal. 0.3 in a frame is not something anyone would notice, especially if the resulting footage wasn't too long.

On the other hand, there are many encoders that do not slow down or fast up the video when changing frame rates, because it uses a different way.
