shot this video with my HVX 200 back in FEB. i used 1080/60i. you may not be able to tell but i got a lot of what i think is motion blur or frame blending. would i be able to avoid this if i shot in 1080 24p or even 720 24p. i didn't use a shutter either. would that help in capturing a crisper shot with high action.

pardon the cheesey live type.
i am also buying a housing that weighs 3lbs as opposed to 25lbs that i shot this with. this means skimping on some of the controls to save weight. standard control would be on off, record stop and zoom.
the problem comes with focus. auto usually focus's on the front element of the housing and any water on it. is it ok to leave the shot wide and on manual at infinity? obviously manual focusing while swimming and getting pummeled by waves is a little out of the question.
