Camcorders - Progressive or Interlaced


 * Be careful of how your camcorder handles progressive filming.
 * RGBaker said (about the Sony TRV-80):
 * {| border="0" style="background:#efefef;"


 * Progressive mode in your camcorder is not the full vertical resolution of interlaced mode, and it is 30 Frames per second instead of 60 fields per second so there is a 'loss' of temporal information. A 'true' progressive camcorder would not lose any vertical resolution but would still lose some temporal information -- for many subjects the loss of temporal information would be visually insignificant.
