    Can anyone explain canons frame movie mode to me? I have heard that it is not true progressive scan, is that correct? On canons website they state that even the xl2 uses it for its 24p and 30p frame rates.

    Thanks in advence for any help.

  2. Hi:

    There is "what they say" and then there is the "what it actually accomplishes".

    What 24F or 30F do is they wind up giving you a progressive look to your shooting, and you get lower light shooting as you're shooting slower. Overall it is my preferred way to shoot movies.  60i just winds up looking like the nightly news.
