Hey Tony, I think you misunderstood my post, or I wasn't very clear. What I meant was, if you're getting 15fps video, like you would possibly want for a website/email etc. then what's the point of having 720p?Anyone looking for web video will want 640x480 or 320x240. Anyone looking for hidef wouldn't want 15fps so as a feature it's a bit of a white elephant, or a marketing gimmick. The Sanyo has a wide lens acessory, AFAIK, and the image stabilisation is actually remarkably good., for digitallll 7.2 vs 12 mpix? I'm told my 'old' non L series lenses are not good enough to take advantage of the 11 mpix in my Canon 5D, so I had to spend $3000 to upgrade the glass. Now we have the same mpix on a ??$400 ? point and shoot.Do you think the glass will really be able to resolve detail to actually use those 12mpx?
The other Strange planet vid was also partially shot on HD2 (the 16:9 and 2.35:1 shots) I won't put links in for eveything in case I attract the >spam! spam!< brigade.
Clearly you know nothing about Panasonic cameras, which are not subject to the laws of physics in this world. Those shrewd Panasonic engineers are like witches.

Sorry, of course I meant HD2! Some demo footage, sadly down rezzed but showing how good the macro is
