Should I shoot 24F for training video?

I'm going to deliver a training video on DVD that students will play either on a computer, on the web, or on a TV. Am I right in thinking that shooting and editing in 24F is the best way to go for this project?

In other words, unless I'm shooting for broadcast and want a video look, there's not much reason to shoot 60i or 30F, is there?

if you going to slow motion the shoots, You should go 60i. 24 p is not very ideal when you need shoots to go slow mo
 
Greg overall your subject matter isnt going to be improved by shooting 24f, and in fact it could make shooting trickier. I would look ar 30f as a in between option if you dont want the total video look of 60i. Most of the stuff Im watching on tv is 60i and Im not complaining - much.

I was thinking 24F would take care of any interlacing issues since I'll be delivering on DVD or computer. So I can shoot 60i and not worry about it?

And David, no, I won't be doing slo-mo.

Thanks for the feedback, guys.
 
I shoot SD with my DVX for most projects but I have done the occasional project using my XHA1 in 30f HDV.
 
Greg even if your delivery is SD I would still seriously consider HDV aquisition. I deliver XDCAM and HPX projects quite often in SD.

Ncje, do you recommend that because, if you shoot and edit in HDV, you can always deliver an HDV version in the future? Or because acquiring in HDV leads to higher quality SD?
