Hi Austin, 

The defects being interlace? What about shooting video in non-interlaced
mode. Each frame is identical (no interlace). 30 frames per second. While
the Sony I  played with was a lower frame rate and during playback it was
not smooth to watch, the Canon at 30fps I'm told is movie like.

Just curious,
Carolyn
