Hi there,
I'll be working on a project with footage from the following but not limited to, cameras:
DVX100 @ 24p;
Canon Xh-a1 @ 24p
Panny-HMC150 @24p
canon 7D 1080 24p
Nikon D90 converted to 24p

I'm using FCP 7 on a mcbook pro with 4 gig ram
when bringing in these clips under one sequence; which sequence preset or easy setup should i go with to avoid any sort of problem in things like aspect ratio, video quality, etc etc.
is there a guideline or rule for this and/or similar situations?
thanks.
 
You'll be better off converting everything to a common codec for editing. This may require "up-rezzing" the DVX footage, but it's going to be much easier to deal with than trying to mix DV with HDV with DVCPROHD with whatever you use to convert the 7D and D90 footage. Since it's all 24p (23.976), it's all a matter of codec.
