hey everyone, i recently bought a Canon HV-20 to complement my larger camera, the Canon XHA1.
i usually shoot in 24P mode with the XHA1. i was under the impression that the HV-20 could shoot in 24P, but i now learn that it shoots in a 'sort-of 24P' mode that is then 'wrapped' in a 60i format. when you import the footage into FInal Cut, it is a 60i file. i shoot in progressive ( P format ) specifically for the web, and now it looks like i will have to de-interlace this HV-20 footage before uploading to Blip, etc. Does anyone have any experience with this or suggestions? i just learned that Canon's new camera , the HV-30 shoots in true 30P, so i may be selling this one and getting the new model , as i really want the progressive format. thx, eric. www.gree-house.tv Gardenfork and Real World Green
