HMC150 LCD Video and FCP Video Choppy/Dropped Frames

[natev]

I recently purchased a used HMC150. I shot for the first time with it yesterday. I shot PH720/60p at 1/60 shutter. I shot to a Sandisk Ultra 32 Gig Card (I have updated the HMC's firmware to handle the class 10).

When I was shooting, occasionally when I panned the tripod, the LCD would appear to skip. At first I thought it might have been my poor tripod skills.

I made an image of the SD card and logged and transferred into FCP7. When I watch the footage, there are a few areas that it skips a bit. When I drop the clip into the timeline, I get dropped frames. Any suggestions?

I should note that my B cam is a canon T2i. I shot this in 720/60p as well. I plan to mix the footage. The t2i's 720 footage is not all that great. I would prefer to shoot 1080, but that would require me to shoot in 30. Would I be able to mix? Could I set the sequence at 720/30 and drop both in this timeline? Would this solve my t2i quality issues and my hmc's dropped frames?

Thanks for your help!

Not sure about actual dropped frames in FCP, but using my HMC's on a tripod and panning on occasion I'll get a little "visual skip"...I don't think its an actual skipping of a frame, but something to do with the OIS. When it happens, its a reminder for me to turn OIS off while I'm on a tripod. That seams to stop the issue. Then when I'm done on tripod I put OIS back on and the world is a much less shaky place Good luck.
