I'm in the process of either getting rid of my HV20 and buying and HV40.

Reason why I would like the HV40, to my understanding, you don't need to do pulldown and it has a better 24P version. My HV20 is NTSC and not Pal.
I tried to look for pulldown tutorials but everytime I had tried, it has failed.

Now, if i stay with my HV20 I needed help in creating a pretty okay adapter to get some film look. I looked around for adapters and I'm not exactly sure what to look for as I, like everyone else, am in a tight budget.

I'm just so lost right now. So far my work that I have done on my HV20 is not coming out exactly how I looked for it to come out. I use PC and Sony Vegas for color correction and other corrections.

I'm sorry if this was put in the wrong section.

I also heard about the hack in the forum, will the hack help my "pulldown" problem as well? Or how can the hack help my situation here.
