Seems as though the video doesn\'t provide audio and while I don\'t see any specs on the video aside from 1920x1080 it apears to be interlaced and not progressive.
Built in mono mic, port for external stereo mic.
Bult-in audio compression that CAN\'T BE TURNED OFF! -even when using external mics.
-and the mpeg4\'s are at 44.1K, not the industry-standard 48K. That\'s a VERY strange choice.
This just SCREAMING \"consumer audio.\" -Not even \"pro-sumer.\"
Typical maximum record-time with an empty 4 gig card: Around 12 minutes. No mention of the possibility of using larger cards, which is odd. 4 gig might be the limit, for some reason.
No mention of recording to an external drive.
Feh.
i think 4GB is the FAT limit for file size?
is 12 minutes really that short?
even movies and TV hardly ever shoot continuous takes that long do they?
Yep, your correct with the Gigabyte limitation for FAT. 12 Minutes of 1080p video isn\'t that bad at all. Seeing as how carrying around your DSLR and it doubling as a HD Video Recorder, I have a feeling we\'ll be seeing HD videos of bar fights and getting hit in the nuts with wiffleballs!
