high-quality 4:2:2,

[Häakon]

Yes.

[Donatello]

the spec’s call for DVCpro50 4:2:2 .. it remains to be seen how high quality the images will be as nobody has seen any images from the ccd’s ..

kind of like the dvx100 is 4:1:1.. is it high quality ? compared to say the sdx900 in dvcpro25 mode ?? they are both 4:1:1 .. the 2 images do have a different quality … depending on your preference one might consider the images from the 2/3″ CCD camera higher quality then the 1/3″ CCD camera ??

[Noah Kadner]

That’s the HD lenses, CCDs and better internal processing on the SDX900 too. One hopes you get those for the added $$$.

Can the cam record both NTSC and pall or just the one

[Brian FitzGerald]

I would assume the 4:2:2, 50Mbps DVCPRO50 signal has to be recorded to the P2 card(s) but I don’t know that for a fact. Can anyone confirm or can your record it to the DV tape?

The tape deck is for standard DV only. DVCPRO50 goes to P2.

Thanks for that. One final thing If I shoot in pal and then interpret footage to NTSC, will the quality be the same as if I shot the footage in NTSC
By the way how do you lay the link for the brochure, how do you do that?
Thanks

Then the camera is not cheap, How can they say charge so much money for a memory chip, this will obviously deter a lot of people in buying the cam. Panasonic will no doubt in a year or two lower the price but only after most of their cutomers have bought some other wonderful invetion, Sony, ect…Who is going to buy a cam for 6 grand only to shoot SD…..If you buy the memory and end up spending 10 grand then it ust be very very gooooood!
