Re: [CinCV] The future (present) of video cameras

One more point I'm sure you'd like to know and any number of folks in  
the cinellera cult should be able to ellaborate on is MPEG and all the  
other evil freemasonic codecs...

I don't want to even really think about them but until theora stops  
looking shifty and pixilated like h263 or something were all stuck  
with propriatary h264 and hdv the asinine mpeg2... --there's more but  
there out of your league I'm guessing cause cause they're mostly  
genlock driven and renninated betacam and Japanese designs... Avchd is  
h264 and hdv is mpeg2 and those for better or for worse are today  
formats in 2008...

I don't know if it matters much to the end user or us  "prosumers"

Cause all that shits available online but basically MPEG2 are a lot  
larger than h264s for similar quality (except I  haven't seen any  
1080p avchd yet) many will tell toy MPEG is more professional, but  
that's just stupid... Both look fine, niether is film... What really  
matters is a lens adapter like the red rock micro m2 (which can be  
built)

But as far as editing avchd h264 you'll run into some interesting  
problems... I don't want to ellaborate because it -
A
  qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqa confuses me too, but basically as much as mpeg2  
is made for playback,  h264 is made for maxrecording/data capacity...  
I think they designed it thinking of Japapnese business men on  
vacation with no intention of editingppqq
