Working on a project where they had a 35MM print transfered to HDCam as 29.97 Psf. Upon inspection the footage on tape is 4 good clean progressive frames then on split blended merged yucky frame. On the bad frame both Psf fields are blended. I'm curious how this cadence of error every 5th frame happens. I'm told this was a 35MM to HDCam transfer. From that I would expect it to have 2:3 pulldown or if it was requested that it be transferred to 29.97P it should have a 2:2:2:4 cadence. The every 5th frame bad frame is a blend of the preceeding and following clean frames. How can this be considered an acceptable way to transfer a film print? I'm use to strange things on stock footage that was poorly reprocessed into progressive from who knows what but this is a brand spanking new film transfer. Can someone with more telecine chops explain to me what they did in transfer land?
