It isn´t actually nothing terrible. It´s a flaw inside of ae but only concerns the preview. After exporting the file everything should be ok.

Weird - I exported it as mov too (photo-jpeg + animation). And after that I couldn´t recognize any interlaced frame. Same mentioned Chris Meyer in his tutorials:

Hmm, what´s going on here...

I think it's a bug on the mac side. Pulldown didn't work for me either but PC side people seem to be having better luck.

you can't de-interlace in AE, you have to use Premiere for that. AE can properly remove pulldown, but not de-interlace.
Yes, you can. Right-click footage/Interpret Footage/Main/Separate Fields (lower or upper first).

And after that the footage is deinterlaced, in the majority of cases ;-). Maybe the pc<=>mac thing plays a prominent role.
I'm not certain, but I'm on a mac and having similar issues in After Effects with interpreting footage to remove pulldown.
Neoscene works perfectly on PC, and should be working correctly on the Mac very soon.
If that's the case for Mac then that seems like the way I'm heading. Nice that you got David from Cineform involved to work on this. Maybe you should be the one dropping a dime to Panasonic about the other issues.
If I knew who to get in touch with I would. I have an idea for an approach but won't get to it till next week.

that's not de-interlacing. the only way to properly de-interlacing in AE is:

and if it is, by no means is it de-interlacing the footage from a 60i stream. when you import your gh1 footage into AE, you right click interpret footage and apply 3:2 pulldown it does not de-interlace it. chime in when you have sucessfully imported a gh1 clip applied pulldown and de-interlaced in AE. i have a high five waiting.

That´s splitting hairs. After a pulldown removal was made in ae you export the footage as 24p-progressiv. And that´s it. There is no need for further de-interlacing in pp or so.
Here a short description by Chris Meyer:

You're confusing deinterlacing with removing pulldown. Progressive high-five.
No. It is a method.

no, i'm not. after the footage is in AE and you guess 3:2 pulldown, it does not de-interlace footage. upper fields first is selected and it's still interlaced...where to now? no high five because unless you have pulled the footage from the gh1 one and rendered out a clip with no interlacing, can't give it to you.

right you would think so right? but it wasn't the case for me. i rendered out footage to video for windows and it was still interlaced, just as what polanski is getting.
