Working with 2:3:3:2 Pull-Down
Some camcorders, such as the Panasonic AG-DVX100, are designed to shoot in progressive
mode at 24 fps (actually 23.98 fps) and then record the video to a tape as a 60-field
interlaced signal by applying 2:3:3:2 pull-down to it. The 2:3:3:2 pull-down is similar in
concept to 3:2 pull-down but has a different pattern of field repetition, as illustrated
below.

There are some advantages to shooting with, and then removing, 2:3:3:2 pull-down
instead of working with 3:2 pull-down:
• Final Cut Pro can easily remove the 2:3:3:2 pull-down while you are capturing, so that
you can edit 24 fps (actually 23.98 fps) progressive video.
