G30 format etc

[Bush68]

G’day all,
Hoping to get some advise.
The last camera I used to produce a DVD was an old Panasonic GS400 tape model!
Things have come a long way and I’m trying to catch up with the technology.
The finished product will be put onto DVD .
Includes some fast moving footage.
Sound quality is not vital but needs to be reasonable.
I am also including footage shot from a GoPro in the project using split screen with the canon footage.
Any suggestions as to format I should be using.
I already have shot a bit in AVCHD 24mbps (duel recording to mp4 4mbps for easy upload to Facebook etc)
But am I better to go to the highest (35mbps mp4) and record to just one card.
Thanks Bush.

I use a Canon G40 and always shoot MP4 50fps at 35Mbps. I have found that this gives a better picture than AVCHD. Keeping a higher bitrate whist editing, etc, will benefit the finished video. You can always render lower resolution versions later for use in Facebook.

I still use an HF G30 and have tried all the higher quality options and I concur. ChapmanDolly is spot on.
