Normally when you convert 24fps film to 25fps Pal you also have to run the audio through a pitch shifter (down 4%) to stop it getting too shrill.NTSC: converted to PAL can look nasty, with very jerky pans. It looks very similar to 60i NTSC - printed to 24fps film eg Blair witch. I think most big US shows are shot at 24fps because there are no skipped frames and its cheaper to shoot at 24fps than 30fps. If you rent the PAL version of 'Oklahoma' you get the Cinemascope(24fps) version not the TODD-AO(30fps).

I used to have a roommate that watched Voyager, and DS-9 EVERY night. I enjoyed Voyager, but hated DS-9 because it is so S-L-O-W.I've got several 35 prints of TV shows, and they are filmed at 24 fps. I've got a RCA TP-66 telecine projector out in the garage/future theatre that I use for copying 16 stuff to video. Too bad I cant copy silent stuff at 18 fps or so... I love a flicker-free image with a home camera! On it, the film runs at 24 fps, but the combination of this and the 5-bladed shutter makes it run at 30 image interruptions per second. Fine for NTSC
