Do you see the bit where i said ‘only Canon themselves know what’s really going on’ …there’s probably a hint there.
do you see the bit where I was actually responding to “random”? ;)
Lol…too many boxes encircling boxes…its all too confusing for me!
Sorry :)
I would really like to have the ability to shoot in 60p mode with the 5DM2, even if it’s for much shorter-length clips. For videos of action like skiing or skateboarding it would be fantastic, since the camera’s size makes it much more versatile than any other decent HD camcorder. Probably not very high on Canon’s to-do list, though.
I don’t think the Digic IV processor can handle that. just a rough estimate, 21 MP @ 4 fps is roughly 84MP/s. HD video is 2MP @ 30 fps, which is 60 MP/s, but at 60p its 120 MP/s. I’m sure there arfe other factors too, but I think you’ll need to wait for either dual digic IV’s or digic V to get to 60p.
