Our recommendation is narrate into your camcorder onto a DV tape, using a studio quality balanced condensor mic.
The advantages of recording onto a DV tape are:
1. After your project is finished, your narration is still on a tape and if you re-edit the project in the future, you won’t have to record and edit the voice-over again.
2. You can narrate away from your computer and its fan.
3. you can log the “footage” and only capture the “keeper” takes.

- true 24p
To capture this, you’ll have to create special capture and sequence presets. But it’s a very rare format. - 23.976
This is more a much more common frame rate. Use the appropriate capture and sequence preset. (Note: FCP calls 23.976 “23.98″ for some odd reason). - 24p with pulldown (actually 29.97 fps, aka 59.94 fields/sec, aka “60i”)
Capture and edit using 60i presets. - 24p “advanced” (2:3:3:2 cadence - actually 29.97 fps, aka 59.94 fields/sec, aka “60i”)
Use the capture preset in FCP titled “DV NTSC 48 kHz Advanced (2:3:3:2) Pulldown Removal”. This preset will capture at 29.97 (that’s what
