GY HD100U vs. GY HD100E

U.S.A. version and European version.
The "U" version records NTSC in DV mode, and the "E" version records PAL in DV mode. HDV mode is the same on both models.

THe 100E version cannot record to the VTR from a firewire input, but the 101E can.

What about the display refresh rate? I thought, at the HD100U it would be 60 Hz, while at the HD100E/HD101E it would be 50 Hz, no matter, if DV or HDV. Am I wrong?

As far as I know the LCD refresh rate is always double the HDV frame rate. So 720P24 has a 48Hz refresh, 720P25 50Hz, and 720P30 60Hz.

There are also the SD HDV modes in both models: 480P60 & 576P50.
 
Yes. That's one of the most interesting things in the HD100. I wish the other companies would do the same. That’s really useful for some folks.
