its very likely that post is talking about the US version of the camera.
"The biggest concern for myself about the CG110 is that the 1080/60 mode is interlaced. I was hoping that -maybe- a 1080/30 mode would be progressive. This is what prompted me to find Savov's post.
The site offers the following insight on the video modes supported by the CG110:
So there are, as expected, multiple modes. The lack of mention of interlaced or progressive in the mode names still leave us in the dark, though.
I did not know, however, that the mode names DO give us some information. According to a thread on Steve's digicam forums (*2), Sanyo uses the SHQ and HR monikers for -progressive- capture modes--the former being 30fps and the latter 60. Therefore, the Full-SHQ, HD-HR, HD-SHQ and TV-SHQ modes are all progressive. "Full-HD" is, consistently, the name they use for interlacing capture modes at 1080. This naming scheme can be deciphered by comparing the capabilities of prior Xacti models, the HD-1000, 1010 and 2000 with their spec sheets.
And it makes sense: there is potential that the camera can do both, as Sanyo has done with its other camera the DMX-SH11. Akihabara news reports (*3) the SH11 has multiple capture modes, some interlaced and some progressive, but the comparable spec source is as untelling. I assume that they too deciphered the code, or its meaning is clear in the industry.
It is greatly based in speculation, but I want to believe that the Sanyo CG110's video modes are (at least) comparable to the CG102's, ensuring the device is capable of a 1080p recording, albeit at a lower 30fps."
There's more to PC games than computer towers and input devices... Enter the CM Storm Sirus, the outfit's first foray into the world of gaming headsets.
