The FieldsKit plug-in is the classic solution, works very well. Needs AE, or FCP, PP, C*, etc. to run it in.

Is there a way that's free?

Now I see that you may need three things: frame rate conversion, deinterlace, and slow motion.

How much slowing down do you need? Would you settle for 2 1/2 times?

That could be done by converting 60i to 60P and then playing back at 24P (presumably 23.976P?).

From 60P you can generate less slowed down frame rates also, with the help of optical flow if necessary.

So is your need for a constant slowdown or a variable slowdown? Which "camera rate(s)" are you looking for?

Me? I'd offset two tracks by half a frame, convert to 60p, then import to 23.976 project. Haven't done it recently, but was always a good (though not terribly fast) method

Spot, how does one offset a track by one half a frame? I've had situations where I wanted to sync two tracks but even when zoomed in all the way the point I wanted to align to was on either side of the frame.

Turn off Quantize To Frames.
And remember to turn it back on.

Wait, wait. Lots of advice but i'm not sure i understand it all.

First, thing first -- yes, i'm talking about 2 1/2 times slow mo by going from 60i to 60p and then pitting that file in 24p sequence. What would be the best way to do it? (with somehow, step by step instructions)?
