	Re: Confusion about Format choice with HVX-200 by Tobias Lindner on Nov 21, 2009 at 2:19:52 am in the Panasonic HVX - HPX (P2) Forum Thank you for the quick answer. I am shooting with only one camera. Keep in mind I am aiming at cinematic release too. So I assume resolution IS indeed important. On the other hand, if the upconvert to 1080 decreases image purity, it is indeed wo

	Re: Poll: Flanders Scientific LM-1770 vs Panasonic TH-42PF11UK by Peter Wollsey on Nov 19, 2009 at 1:16:46 am in the Apple Color Forum The only problem here is as far as I can tell the new 12 series 42 inch model is 720p only - whereas the old 11 series 42 inch is 1080p and I really don't want to go any bigger than 42" for the size room I have.

	Re: How to capture HDV from Sony Hard drive, very stuck by Ed Cilley on Nov 17, 2009 at 2:58:27 pm in the AVID Forum Sorry for the bad post on my part. 1080i refers to interlaced (i). 30p would be progressive, so we will never see 1080i 30p. So I guess the question is, is it 1080i or is it 30p? When starting a new project you should have the option for 1080p/
