Re: Cineframe 30/Cineframe 25 resolution loss vs. 60i

Sorry, you HAVE measured V rez in CF30. I'm reading mail, while in India backwards. :)

Can you check light sensitivity between CF30 and 60i.

I've always though Sony was very clever to always use 60i because it did keep sensitivity constant.

There is another possibility for the 575. Remember how with the DVX100 you can turn ON 2 levels (in the 100A) of blending in the 24A mode. As I remember, if you were going to film you did NOT turn on the filter. However, if you were going to display on interlace devices -- you needed to filter to less Vrez to prevent line-twitter and Morie patterns. (
Or. maybe if you were going to an interlace format like to a DVD.)

So maybe thats the cause for the loss.

Does the Z1 have a Full V rez menu item?
