Nice!
Once you shoot all that video, you'll want to look into some editing software. Right now I'm using Adobe Premier Pro, and it's a huge program with a lot of capability. I started off with Windows Movie Maker 'cause it came with Windows XP, but the program compresses the data quite a bit. The files end up smaller and the render quicker, but when you finish your movie and burn it to a DVD, just make sure to have your settings as high as possible so when you watch them on your TV the don't look pixelated. |

I'm still debating whether or not to use 24p mode for the footage.

Progressive video compresses better than interlaced does. definitly, If your going to deliver the final video online, film it progressive.

Thanx for the advice. I just got back from the trip, but I decided to do both and ate up a lot of footage just to be safe. Editing it now and should be done really soon.
