Personally, I took the “effective 1.1 million pixels” of the hvx200a to simply mean that the camera achieves an effective HD picture (720p) through pixel shifting, just as the hvx200 always has.
The HVX200 claimed an effective 1.1 million pixels, and so does this new one. And so does the HPX500. In other words, resolution hasn’t changed, but it does sound like the 200A’s new CCDs are more sensitive to light/less noisy.

Yikes, good thing you caught that as you were downloading into FInal Cut. Had you erased the card after that….well, it would not have been a happy day. 😉

I’m getting very tired of Panasonic’s inability to ship enough P2 cards to take care of its customers.
8 gig cards were hard to come by for a long while, and 16 gig cards are just as hard (even for people buying premium HPX bundles that are supposed to ship with 4/5 cards…a number of people have brand new cameras collecting dust as they wait and wait for their backordered cards). Now we hear about 32 GB cards in November, but I highly doubt November or anywhere near that will be a realistic date for most people.
How hard is it for a major manufacturer to properly manage supply and demand? It shouldn’t perpetually be so hard for Panasonic to figure this out, especially since P2 is now supposed to be a “mature” format.
