You are correct....IF IT IS A STILL PICTURE ONLY. If it is video/motion, the missing lines are conveniently located in the next 1/60th of a second, too fast for our brains to know it was missing...
I though the superbowl in HD was magnificent. Artifact is there, but, in order to notice it (with my setup), you have to be looking for it, and at a distance of 5 feet or less from the 50 inch...
Practically speaking, it is 60i, or 30P that I consider to be the current readily available best configurations (specifically, with the FX1, 1080i...60i).
Personally, reasonably broad availability it of vital importance for the hobbyist, and much more so, for the semipro/pro videographer. For the latter, without availabilty, there are no (or minimal)...
Again, an excellent point about capturing in HD downrezzing for now, but having the original HD footage archived. Brilliant, I can't believe I hadn't thought of it myself.
That is a good point about having the HD footage archived for later use. I had not thought about it that way. Downrezed to SD however, is no different than SD native.
Maximizing resolution does not make sense above some upper limit of perception. By analagy, sounds in ultrasonic high frequency may technically enhance audio resolution (instrument measured), but...
Available as in broadcast, prerecorded on DVHS, or WMV9? Or something that you or I could create, but is not available to consumers. Actually, of the examples I mention above, only the first is...
To read a paper (or look at a still photo) yes, the later example is the preference. But this is video, at 60 fps versus 30 fps, my vision and processing will blend the half picture fields (2 of...
First, the vx2100 being higher end, has a steeper learning curve such that the results will improve as you make adjustments over time. Second, absolute resolution is not going to be dramatically...
Sorry, I just saw the answer to the budget question. At that price, either the Panasonic GS400, or one of the mid range Sony DVD cams would be my recommendation. The first is a 3 chip, and the...
Oh, in that case, what is the budget for the second camera? BTW, 2 dollars per blank is the very high end for rewritable media, non rewritables are well under a dollar.
1080i is 60 FPS, 720P is 30 FPS (the 2 dominant HD formats). You are saying 720P at 60 FPS. Top end fixed pixel plasmas currently available are ~1350X760 (a little more than 1280X720) with the...
Is there a link to the broadcast engineering article you reference? That quote is not complete, and could be interpreted out of context. As it alludes to subjective resolution versus measured, I...
That might not be the right question. Legitimate third party batteries are usually a better value than Sony brand batteries (the most expensive). If you agree, avoid the Sony name altogether, and...
Even nicer, burn the video to DVD. At 2 dollars a blank (and decreasing), that is the way to go. You don't have to do all of the laborious NLE, just transfer from camera to DVD burner (computer...
As stated, the playback portion of any minidv camera will work as well as the vx2100. It is not this part of the camera that makes the vx2100 better/different from the rest. A 200 dollar minidv...
Wireless is my suggestion...budget might be a problem though. Inexpensive examples are available....but, you may end up getting what you pay for (not so good).
You are 95% correct. There are some formats (WMV9 as an example) that will allow HD on a DVD....but, playing DVDs from a computer, or finding a rare stand alone player (with microsofts' unreliable...
