How do I edit 24P footage in FCP3? Do I need CinemaTools or can FCP do it? I have footage I want to have a film look but will be show on TV. Thanks.

FCP supports 24 frame editing if the codec used supports it.

There's many more issues with 24 fps editing, though, and your post doesn't give enough information to give a thorough answer.

Video footage that is 24fps based with 3:2 pulldown added can be edited in FCP no problem...or any other NLE.

If your question is really about whether you can edit footage from a Panasonic DVX100 in FCP, the answer is yes, no matter what progressive mode was used. It's all 29.97fps DV codec coming off the tape into the computer with that camera.
