PsF (PF30) or 60i?

[p2potter]

I have recently acquired an old, but in mint condition, Canon HFG20. It generates very nice HD video, but it has (at least) two formats for storage, PF30 (PsF) and 60i. I am also using a DJI Pocket 2 and an Action 4 to generate 4k 30p video.

Since ultimately I want to combine and edit these files in Resolve, which format should I record in for the HFG20?

I have used ShutterEncoder/Hybrid/QTGMC, in combination with the FFV1 codec for older video files to generate good deinterlaced files for editing (but very large), so I am comfortable with this process. But I have no idea how PsF files would be handled in a similar vein.

Does anyone have any reasonable suggestions for which format I should use with the HFG20 to maximise quality and easy of subsequent manipulation?

TIA, big time!

For ease of use: 30fps progressive, so that you won't need to deinterlace later at all. No QTGMC, nothing.
For better control over the motion blur: 30fps interlaced (60i), as you can adjust the ShutterAngleSrc parameter in QTGMC at will.
