Hi Scott the F500 will play the 25psf at 24 or 23.98. Set DS up to control
the VT as a F500 23.98 and set the machine to play back 23.98.
You can now capture at 23.98 no render you should be able to use the DS
pulldown to create a 29.97 sequence if required.
I have just done all be it with a D5 deck as far as I remember the F500 does
the same all though it will not do the pulldown to NTSC with out the option
board fitted.

You may be better off looking into a UFC (universal format converter) if
you're company has the $$. Of course, only if its a long format.
Or by all means, capture 25, note the FFOP to LFOP, start new 23.98
sequence, drop in the 25fps seq to the 24seq and timewarp to the total run
time. Pitch the audio (not sure of all the settings here) . Then do all your
new edits in the 24 (23.98) universal format master sequence (get that?) and
you'll be good to go for any other format you need to output to.
Hope that helped.
Marc
