Chris just wanted to ask- are you shooting 25p (30p) or 50p (60p). yesterday i shot 50i -imported into fcp as normal but it looked softer than normal. Not sure why but just a thought. The other thing is have you tried different lenses as perhaps you have a faulty lens?

I have a US camera, so all my shooting was at 24/60p - the US version doesn't have a 30p option. Interlaced video is always going to be softer as you're taking images and splitting them into two parts - I always shoot progressive.  The lens is fine, I got great results shooting stills and in the side-by-side with the 5n I used the same lens on both cameras via the LAEA1 adapter.
