    720pn/30fps vs 1080i/30fps (HVX200a)

    Posted by Lawrence Richards on May 22, 2012 at 6:31 pm

    Hello All,

    I often shoot 720pn simply to maximize card space. However I am wondering if by doing so I’m also reducing the quality of footage?
    Thank you!

    Shooting 720p does not reduce quality.
    When shooting HD you choose between 720p and 1080i
    Different HD formats with different specs and looks.

    Chris,
    Thanks for getting back to me.
    Curious to know though: when you say you choose 720p or 1080i because of different looks, can you elaborate on that please?

    Thank you!
