Update: I re-captured all three of my THX 1138 LDs with the DPS-575 and, despite my initial praise, have some reservations about the results of the 3D CF in "normal" (of low/normal/high/extreme) mode.

The first frame of every significant shot change (e.g., dark to light; red to blue) has SeriouslyScrewedUp™ chroma; everything else looks fine otherwise.

The question at this point is: Do I accept this result and move forward or should I re-capture with the DPS-575 in 2D adaptive mode instead?

The best solution is, of course, a combination of the two. I can re-capture with the DPS-575 in 2D adaptive mode and then replace the SeriouslyScrewedUp™ frames with ones from it, but I don't really have a shot change detection algorithm I trust at the moment and I'm not willing to go through this entire thing to come up with a shot list.

Thoughts?

In better news: I have found the best denoising algorithm I've ever seen in an extremely expensive (read: thousands of dollars) program I use regularly. It uses some of the best motion estimation algorithms in the biz and I can't force this thing to smear. It's wonderful.
