You are right... All of our DV cameras will pale in comparison! That is for sure. What a fun camera this this was to review because of that. The clarity of this thing is great.

720p is generally considered to be better than 720i because it is progressive, but if the camera could do 720i, footage could go through a Bob filter to get squished 1280x360 at 60fps, then be de-interlaced with the excellent Smooth Deinterlace by Gunnar Thalin (see http://home.bip.net/gunnart/video/#deinterlacesmooth). You would then end up with pretty good 720p 60fps footage. You can do this procedure now with DV at 480i, and end up with pretty good 480p. Unfortunately, that isn\'t an option here though. Oh well, we will have to wait for the 720p 60fps camcorders for that...
