This is interesting. The DCM-M1 in high resolution mode (10 minutes of video per disc) records video at 8 megabits per second, as opposed to 25 megabits for Mini DV video. So the problems with the DCM-M1 go beyond the poorer quality lenses used in the camera and other features that aren't as good as the better Mini DV cameras. The FORMAT itself is limited, even if you used TRV900 or XL1 quality lenses, etc. it would still look far inferior to Mini DV. Still, it would be interesting if someone could take some photos with this thing and post them on the web and post a URL here. I saw this item at Good Guys the other day for $2299 (plus tax) but you can order it over the web delivered for less than $1800. Has anyone actually bought one yet or does absolutely nobody on the list have this kind of money to hrow away on a technology that will soon be surpassed by DVD camcorders? ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
