(FT2) Panasonic future MicroFourThirds cameras recording 1920×1080 progressive?
The greek website FullHD.gr posted an extremely interesting rumor. They posted an image of the first Panasonic camcorder with three sensors, CMOS, Leica lens and a huge (two-digit number of megapixels) resolution. But what’s really amazing is that it can record in 1920×1080 progressive (1080p)!
And here the BIG rumor for you: They say (if the google translation is correct) that this year Panasonic will also implement 1920×1080 progressive in future MicroFourThirds cameras!

4 years ago |Hi JJ! Panasonic GH1 records Full HD 1920 x 1080, 60i (sensor output is 24fps)(FHD: 17Mbps). But I would be happy with a REAL 30fps or 60fps (I am dreaming) progressive.

4 years ago |For reasons of compatibility with existing displays, usually the full HD progressive capture (24,25 or 30p) is embeded in an interlaced transportation stream 1920×1080/50i/60i.
Two half frames of a progressively captured frame are shown one after another -the progressive segmented frame or PSF (not 24p, this is overlayed with pulldown) . This also counteracts display jitter.
50/60p are not likely at this stage on consumer stuff. They require double data rates.
In PAL GH1 captures 25p over 1920×1080/50i transportation PSF stream.

you know my name
4 years ago |ahh, seems the Trine is a little bit more possible
just saying
u wrong
3 years ago |the gh1 can already do 1080p (at 24fps with pulldown which is 60i but 1080p nontheless)
the tm700 can do 1080p60
so whats the big deal with this post?
maybe theyre talking about the upcoming af100?
seems like a post that would be exciting in 2008
