more
efficient for software editing at the 2:3:3:2 cadence (provided your =
software
understands it). &nbsp;It takes 60% less processor power to edit 24PA =
footage,
and renders are at minimum, 25% faster. &nbsp;<br>
<br>
But -- if you get 24PA footage that needs to get converted to import to =
DS,
then you can run it through Vegas, and convert it to standard 24P.
&nbsp;&nbsp;I've done several projects with 24PA keeping the 24P all =
the way to
DVD (which saves you about 25% space on the DVD as well). =
&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes -- it
has a look that a lot of producers are wanting right now... =
&nbsp;&nbsp;Whether
it's great or not is another whole topic. ;)<br>
<br>
The best looking 24P and 30P footage I've seen from the sub-$6K camera =
range is
1080i footage shot with the Sony Z1U and then converted to 24P and 30P =
in Vegas.
&nbsp;Sony worked especially hard in the 6.0 release on this type of
conversion. This way, you can shoot 1080i all day and have the nice =
footage to
start with, and if your producers wants, you can easily convert to a =
super
clean progressive for that &quot;look.&quot; &nbsp;<br>
<br>
As I've said before, Vegas is no replacement for DS, but it sure is the =
best
utility to use alongside DS as Vegas is very strong where DS is weak. =
(Like
file imports and exports and unbeatable audio). &nbsp;<br>

like I said, the imager can have a shutter speed of 24 frames, the 3:2 =
pull
down gives you 60i out of the camera, but since there never were 30 =
frames
&quot;exposed&quot; you end up with that hip, cool, cutting edge =
&quot;film
look&quot; of a 24 frame transfer. &nbsp;:-P &nbsp;To my knowledge, =
there is no
wa of getting the imager's 24 frame rate out prior to the 3:2 =
converter.<br>
This reminds me so much of back in the 1900's during the BIG 80's when =
lots of
folks were using their DVEs to freeze fields and/or frames in a similar =
cadence
to get that &quot;stutter&quot; effect. You, know if the talking head =

interesting in 30 fps, it doesn't seem anymore interesting at less than =
30 fps
to me. I could be wrong....<br>
&nbsp;This too will pass I hope.... &nbsp;:-( <br>
