Just a quickie thought.
If anyone has a link in a foreign langauge the best thing to do is locate that particular webpage through Google and click on the "translate" option. Here is the English version http://translate.google.com/translat...lr%3D%26sa%3DG |

Hmmm..
"A natively progressive recording does not give it" Seems to answer that question. |

Interesting this page is. Learn from it you will. But its accuracy, question you must. Curious this statement is:
"Signal processing 8 bits or 10 bits? All signals of the Canon are placed 8-bitig to the order and correspond thereby to the standard." Strange that would seem... from Canon confirmation do I seek. |

Chris,
Placing 8-bits on a 10-bit protocol is just odd -- so I won't believe it (testing will be easy.) 8-bit data over HD-SDI is just 10-bit data with the bottom to bits set to zero. Canon will have enough sensor precision to deliver 10-bit data over HD-SDI, not doing so doesn't make any sense. When you use the HDSDI feed the camera is just a head, and no longer needs to "correspond thereby to the standard." The standard is then HDSDI, which is 10-bit.

Thanks, David, that's what I'm expecting as well.
The reluctance at this point in time to officially disclose the bit depth of the DSP or the SDI output is a conservative move typical of Canon Inc. (Japan), and in my opinion that policy is more of a back-firing liability to them than anything else. There's nothing like an unconfirmed technical factor to spur controversy. |
