Mixing Sony XDCAM and HVX footage

Hi Barry, seeking some advice. I am about to commence a sports doco in Australia and using a cameraman with a Sony XDCAM 700 to shoot the bulk of the action etc but intending to use my HVX200 for interviews pick-ups and other. If I shoot the HVX footage at 1080i 25p do yo think it would cut together ok with the XDCAM 700's 1920X1080 25p codec or would it just look too different. If I use the HVX am I better using the HVX with a nanoflash to improve the signal quality. Otherwise am I better picking up a smaller Sony such as the EX3 for the additional work to match the XDCAM? if the HVX won't mix with the XDCAm 700 footage, I am also considering the 5DMkII for the interview work. Any feedback appreciated. Best...
