    There is no PAL or NTSC film. Those are television standards.
    Film is shot at 24 frames/sec
    PAL TV is working with 25 frames
    NTSC TV is 29.97 frames
    Computer drive does not care about this, so you can play both PAL and NTSC DVD on your computer, only thing what holds back computer is a Region setting on DVD and your computer drive.

    I didn't get that from his post at all. If he wanted to do some filming and he's in the US, then why would he be asking about the framerates in European movie theaters?

    Original film specs have nothing to do with what is recorded on a camera anyway.
