PAL VersionPosted by Dale Kutzera
If you're making a version for DVD then I wouldn't bother, since we can easily watch NTSC DVDs on PAL DVD players.
If it's for a film festival or broadcast delivery, read this : Q. How do I convert PAL to NTSC or NTSC to PAL using Compressor 2? Or, if that's too long winded or hard, yeah, use a post house to convert it for you. I doubt that your NTSC DigiBeta will give you the option to record in PAL, but I don't know all the models, so could be wrong.
I suggest Natress's Standards conversion filter - it works brilliantly -
Nattress Standard's Converter It rescales NTSC to Pal and the other way too - we used it on a shoot in Africa -- Zambia's local standard is PAL - saved us a bundle using our own NTSC camera rather than renting PAL Gear -- edit everything as you do normally - then apply the filter to a nested version of your sequence - the filter rescales everthing (PAL Frame size is slightly larger than NTSC) and changes the frame rate - It produces beautiful results and a bargain at 100.00 for the filter - Graeme offers a tutorial on the site how to do it. go here NTSC to PAL tutorial Much faster - better results than with Compressor Andy
