    720p (which is the proper name for this resolution) IS a valid HD resolution, it's just one that isn't being adopted by anyone. It is however, better than 480p, which is what the Panasonic dvx100 does. The Panasonic still has the advantage as far as I'm concerned, however, since it records in standard DV format, making editing easier. When we have more details about the JVC system, this apparent advantage may disappear.

        OOps, sorry guys, i deleted wrong post, the one with the photo of blu-ray products (left the one without the attachment). It seemed that the photo of JVC's camcorder was inadvertently placed with those of the blu-ray prods since they were all demonstrated at the same exhibition.

            "The new camcorder records the video as MPEG-2 digital video onto new, special MiniDV tapes

            Well this sort of defeats its quality as far as any advancement given to the user for compositing, does it not? I mean I want to go HD because it will allow me to step into a higher leauge as far as blue screen goes. 4:1:1 with 5-1 compression makes this hard to say the least. How crappy is MPEG-2 going to be?

                Many of the upcoming MPEG-2 camcorders will be using 4:2:2 I-frame or 4:2:2 Studio profile and not the usual 4:2:0 IBP. These would be an excellent MPEG-2 editing formats.

                    Uh, that is very good news. I hope very much it ends up being correct. Thanks Doc.
                    What kind of compression ratio can we expect from this format?
                    P.S. damn I'm excited!
