Interesting. Now why don't they have something like the ag ac8 or aj px270 that can do that? I wonder if there are more models soon to come. Cheap consumer cams are going to have abilities our pro-Sumer cameras lack.

Yes....we have to get a sample of this 240p. It's the first 1/3" sensor camcorder that's perked my interest in years.

@ Kurth - The actual footage is 120 fps, but the camera can interpolate and playback at 240 fps. Still, 120 fps at full HD could be very useful to me when shooting soccer games and you want to show the action/replay in exquisite slow motion....cross drifting in to the box, player rising to meet it, header into the net...!! Goal..!!! Of course it will be interesting to see how Sony, JVC, etc...follow up with their own high speeds...
