i know the hvx has variable frame rates for smooth slow motion, but how does the z1 compare? is there a big difference in quality? if you want to slow the z1 footage down in post, should you shoot in 30i or 60i? thanks!
 
The general consensus with the Sony(s) is to shoot in your highest resolution and change/fix everything in post.
 
Shoot 60i, seperate the fields in frames = 60 fps. then slow footage down to by 50%. Looks great!
 
I'm going to try some of these solutions. Years ago, I did a feature on the XL1 and when I took a shot and made it slo-mo halfway through the moment, I could see the quaity drop. Little did I know that DV tends to drop in quality when slowed down. I've down the same with HDV, and it still looks good. I'll try out that tip!
