No..he asked the PROG. scan rate, not the NSTC rate. True the prog. scan must end up being 30fps, but the camcorder only obtains 15fps and doubles it. and al gore shoulda won but he blew it witht that dumb book he wrote LOL

Re: Ole V2K Jim Can't Post

 You revealed yourself when you wrote that you don't understand "intrinsical neuclity", which refers to one of the most basic functions of the v1k. Yep, you are no-doubt a v2k user. For those who find the v1k too hard to understand, I would suggest that you move on to the v2k. I am told that it's the very camera that God himself uses, that He videos us with it E V E R Y D A Y, and that it will do anything you need it to. Is it true that it also has a fastening attachment for a clown balloon so that one can hold the attention of kids?
Dear v2k Jim, I will now explain what I mean by a Hubble quality image:images are nonetheless images just because they are animated through video. Also, Jim, when the Hubbelites look through that terribly inferior to the vx1000 lens, they are not looking at still images. Ole v2k Jim did you not know that that stuff out there that they are looking at is moving, some of it at thousands of miles per hour.
You v2k users had better wise up. Don't lose your reasoning ability like ole v2k Jim. Buying a camera that does it all and requires no thinking on the part of its user is causing some to lose their power to reason from lack of use.
Jim - sell that thang before it destroys you!

Don't get too c-o-c-k-y about the v1k, the jvc-dv500 blows its doors off in image quality (and is 4k, the same price when v1k was introduced 5, count em', 5 years ago :-). God uses the v1k, well "He" must be on a budget b/c that cam can't hold it's own on more expensive cams like the DSR-300.

: that cam can't hold it's own on more expensive cams like the DSR-300.
We use a DSR-500 and have rented the DV-500 and depending on your final destination, the VX-1000 has the exact same color and balance, CCDs withstanding. Of course the DV-500 has a better image "over-all". It has 2/3" CCDs whereas the VX-1000 has to work with 1/3" chips. But for the money there is no better camera than the VX-1000. None.

Re: RIt depends.... [In reply to] Can't Post

I can't explain it, but thing that interests me the most about the vx2k is the image it sends out. It is so sharp, it looks like a cartoon or something. I don't know what I'm trying to say, but I've used this camera and it kicks! I can't wait until mine comes in the mail!!!!!

1/15 sec img acquisition ?? v2k [In reply to] Can't Post

v2k manual says it only acquires/samples the image every 1/15 of a second in progressive scan mode. plz correct me if wrong, but isn't that the same thing (in infamous sony double speak) as saying the camera acquires full-frame images 15 times per second ?? and isn't another way to say this "the v2k shoots in progressive mode (full frame capture mode) at only 15 frames per second" ?? and wouldn't it make sense to say "gee, 15fps looks like total sh_t compared to 24fps movie frame rate" ?? but maybe i misunderstand.
it seems to me that, again, even with the v2k, i'm forced to choose between "too blocky" (or max-headroomy) a look, or too "blurry" a look, when the final mixdown is for 24fps 35mm film...

Why can't people just accept the fact that the DCR-VX2000 is a VIDEO CAMERA, it is not a FILM CAMERA, nor is the GL1. If you want to shoot film then use a FILM CAMERA. And to answer your question, 1/15sec= 15 frame/ 1 second. If you do the algebraic mathematics, it works out.

Sorry Hewy: Bad Info! [In reply to] Can't Post

Sorry Hewy, NTSC video is 30 frames per second period! It doesn't matter what the 'shutter speed' is All NTSC Cameras record at 30fps no matter what format the may be. Your "algebraic mathematics" is fuzzy math!
