Hi friends can you please tell me the difference in simple words about both of them? actually i saw the details of 2 Cameras on the page

http://camcorder.jvc.com/product.jsp?productId=PRD1208000&pathId=141

where i read about these 2 cameras

http://camcorder.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL027875&pathId=141&page=10

http://camcorder.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL028387&pathId=141&page=10

i want to know how there results are different?and which has better results? i also read about them on wikipedia. i mean about 1920x1080/60P and 1920x1080i but still want to be clear about the picture quality in comparison and the basic difference. I read that one has horizontal lines and the other has vertical lines...so how do they effect the footage?

one more thing on the link below

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1080p

in the 10th line it is said that

The image that results is different from the display of original 1080p source material on a native 1080p capable display. Similarly, equipment capable of displaying both 720p and 1080i may in fact not have the capability to display 1080p or 1080i material at full resolution.


can you please explain me this please?


Atlast want to share my feeling with you i have saved 100 US dollars.i hope in next 3 months i will defenately my HD cam .......:D

1080i is interlaced (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlace) while 1080p is progressive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_scan). I can't compare the two in real world terms as far as ease of working with, as I've not shot progressive mode directly but my SR11 shoots 1080i and it hasn't caused me any issues at all as i simply deinterlace it on export if needed.

This article may help, http://www.vxm.com/Progvsinter.html it's a little lengthy, but it breaks it down. I fully understand what the "i" and "P" are, but I'm still learning about HD, so this is all I can offer right now, I don't want to give out false info.

Hmm thanks a lot. Just a single question. Which one is more easier for a young Indie filmmaker? 1080i or 1080p?


Regards

Neither one is easier than the other. It's a matter of preference. Most TV shows are transmitted in Interlaced mode, but I've been reading articles where Progressive is suppossed to be the new way to go now especially with digital transmission. But I think it's still a personal preference. My big screen HD TV is 1080p, I bought the "P" because I think it offers better quality- just my personal preference and opinion.

hmmmm



thanks for the reply

Yeah, it's really doesn't have any effect on how easy it is to use, it's just how the final product will look. Technically, progressive is superior, but you won't notice it unless you're watching some high paced sports game or something like that. Here's the difference:

So effectively, you're getting twice the resolution with progressive, but interlaced takes up like half the bandwith. So say Wikipedia anyway. :)

But to an indie film maker, I'd presume there really wouldn't be much difference.

Thanks a lot......
