Is there a HD100 Demo DVD? How does 720p HDV compare to 720p DVCPRODHD Can't Post

 
Is there a Demo DVD of the JVC HD100's footage?
Can Ken Freed explain and please forgive me if this has been asked before. How does the 19mbps 720p 24fps HDV codec of JVC's compare to the 24fps 720p DVCPROHD codec? It has been said that at 24fps on DVCPROHD is 40mbps instead of 100mbps for 60fps. Correct me if I am wrong but DVCPROHD is only 960x720 where the JVC codec is the full 1280x720. DVCPROHD is Intraframe compression which means every frame is a complete frame where as the JVC is Interframe which is not a complete frame every frame. And finally JVC uses 4:2:0 color sampling where as the DVCPROHD codec uses 4:2:2. Can you please explain the strengths and weaknesses of both codecs? Besides more depth of field and a lower light sensitivity will this camera be better than say a Sony DSR500 or a JVC DV500 we already own?
