>>>The theory goes that field rendering is smoother than frame rendering because video will make two passes for each image, one the even scanlines and one the odd scanlines. However, using video output devices that can operate more quickly than PAR, you actually get 60 fields instead of 30 fields, and thereby reduces the jitter. It's really all a matter of personal preference and what output hardware you have available to you. But if you can work with 60 fields, rendering to frames, it will look better.<<< My understanding is that the PAR does 60 fields per second. And in video 2 fields make up one frame. When doing any animation to video tape I think field rendering is smoother than frame rendering, especially for fast moving objects or those close to the camera.
