I heard 720 was better than 1080 on the HPX 500. Is this true? Sounds ridiculous to me but you never know.
 
If it sports or high speed shooting you want 720p/50/60 man but naritive or low speed you want the res of 1080/24/25p

Im from Pal Land :), cam is kind of irreivanlt here its picking the right format for the job :)

1080P is better than 720P.

720/60P is better than 1080/60i for motion, not just on an HPX500 but on any HD camera. Same with 720/50P over 1080/50i.
 
That's what I thought Barry, thanks. Someone just said 720p was the cameras "sweet spot" and that it looks the most filmic. I'll just shoot in 1080 so I have more to work with. Thanks!
 
Hello Cocoa. But how does it come that on the 1080p chart one can read the direction of the homepage (www.df-dok.de) printed on the chart, but in 720p, not? If ther was only a 5% difference in resolution, one should be able to read the URL on both stills.

IMO Pixel shift gives more detail in real world application (like some letters printed on a paper) than a resolution chart reveals. I belive to have seen this on a couple of examples on this blog.
