How do I set my 200A to 1080p???

[hvxer]

All I see in the menu is 1080i. Is there some de-interlace thing you have to do in post?

Also, to shoot a feature film on the hvx, what aspect ratio do you set the hvx to when shooting?

Thanks

Shoot 1080i24pa. When you go to ingest the footage, you'll end up with 1080p clips.

The menus are confusing -- but the modes which are called "1080i/24p," "1080i/24pA" and 1080i/30p" are all 1080p modes. They are recorded in a 1080i stream, but you can retrieve the original 1080p frames in post.

Hi David,
I am using FCP 6.How can we retrieve 1080 frames in post.Do we need to do some pull down removal or something like that?

 

[David Saraceno]

When log and transferring 1080/24pa, set the preferences section to remove pulldown.

Technically you shouldn't have to do anything in FCP 6.0 since its default settings are already set to automatically remove pulldown.

I am actually liking the 480i/24pA instead with some AE. weird.
