Well, if it’s running at 48i, they’d still have to de-interlace? Do they apply interlace filtering or not? Still sounds like guesswork until we get an explanation from Canon or get to play with a camera and footage.

[Brian SaenzDeViteri] “Please correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t it a RAID 0 in the P2 cards, not a RAID 1? How can it be “fault free” in a RAID 0 without backup or redundancy?”
I think what Jan was getting at is that the LSI arbitrates the flow of data and performs checks to make sure that it gets to where it’s going without faults, not that RAID0 offers redundancy.

You’re spot on Mark! That chart is wrong.

So F rather than P could mean that it’s faking P from interlaced video similar to the Sony, or it could be running the chips at 48i and doing a frame mode on them, or it could just mean that it’s getting real progressive frames, but embedding them in a normal 1080i60 HDV stream without any repeat field tags to get better data compression, unlike JVC who use the flags to get 24p embedded in 60p without wasting any extra data.
Until we know which of the above, or if it’s something else entirely…..

Execellent and enlightening answer Jan!

Got anything solid on it being Cineframe? I’d have thought that Canon would have learned from the real 24p they did on the XL2?

That would do me just fine 🙂

HD SDI is nice, but it’s hardly practical to take along a HD deck into the field with you, and if you’ve got the budget for a HD Deck rental, you may as well have rented an F900 or Varicam instead……

[Kevin Monahan] “The actual CCD capture is 1440×1080 effective capture (same as HDCam SR & D5) “
But D5 and HDCAM SR record 1920×1080 not 1440×1080. Higher resolution chips = higher noise and lower dynamic range though. If you keep the dimensions of the chip the same and increase the resolution, something has got to give. You can’t fit more than a pint in a pint pot 🙂

Dub the MV footage to DV, and then capture from the DV.
