24p and Premiere Pro

Thursday is my first shoot.

There have been some troubles with my setup of premiere pro and a matrox
rtx.10.

I want to use 24p so it can be output to film in the future, and edit in
Premiere (ideally in Matrox mode - I have an rtx-10). I want to double-check
that this is possible, as I can't find it in the documentation.

I have 3 options for shooting 24p on my camera (a canon XL2):

24p

24p 2:3

24p 2:3:3:2

Can Premiere /Matrox edit in all of them? What I see in the timebase window
choices is only 29.97 fps for Matrox and DV playback.

My understanding is that perhaps 2:3:3:2 allows me to edit in more modes (at
29.97 fps) including Matrox, and still output to 24fps later. Can anyone confirm
this?

From what I can see if I want to actually edit in 24p, I have to switch to Video
for Windows mode (the only mode offering that frame rate,) which I'm guessing
isn't taking advantage of either Premiere or Matrox.

I realize that there are 24p configurations which permanently corrupt some of
the 24 frames in a pulldown to video speeds. I don't want that.

My recollection is that I discovered on my research that when the time came,
Premiere/Matrox would be able to accommodate the 24p modes canon shoots in, but
I can't find any documentation of that.

Not bad advice thanks and I will, but a little testing can't answer everything.
Sometimes a lot can't either. I've had a lot of mike testing to do prioir to
this shoot and this element got away from me, (and unfortunately much trouble
over the past year with Premiere/Matrox that my hands have been full just
getting it stable, which it may now finally be.)

This question has implications for a future output which can't be tested simply,
and if a file loads and plays in a mode doesn't mean it will work long term (for
example, mpeg4s have seemed to work perfectly in matrox mode for an hour or two
of editing, but after a few hours of editing everything breaks down and the file
gets corrupt.)

The implications of some settings can't be discerned at all with a bit of
testing (drop-frame vs non-drop-frame, for example).
