FYI: That HDV Handycam in is NOT the picture of the PDW-F330 1/2" 3CCD XDCAM-HD camera.Walter_Graff said:

I see that. If it was it would be a mighty small blueray that fit in it. But the info I think is valid, no?

Sure. Just didn't want folks to get confused between ANOTHER Handycam-type HDV camera, and this lovely, full-size, shoulder-mount PDW-F330 XDCAM-HD camera.Walter_Graff said:

Returning to bigger CCDs, I think we will get more satisfaction from the digital cameras, than camcorders.
Last Canon camera, the Powershot S80, has a 1/1.8" CCD and can rec 1024x768 at 15fps and all for less than 600€. And it a digital still camera, they weren't trying to make a motion picture camera...
"PowerShot S80 offers a movie recording capability that's new to digital cameras: XGA (Large) size, which is ideal for computer viewing. XGA mode records 1024 x 768 pixels (15 fps) - about twice the data of VGA - for extremely high quality films. Since PowerShot S80 gives you the option of taking any frame from your recorded movie and printing it on a single sheet (creating a still frame print), this high image quality for movies is a useful advantage."
Imagine what a camcorder they can if they try!!! Panasonic call Canon and make a nice one and big CMOS native resolution camcorder which recs directly in 3.5 serial ata drives or P2. With EOS lenses. What do we want more??
