Thanks for posting that up Mark.

...Hi Andrew: You're most welcome :-) There's another brainless, el cheap, plastic lens - point and shoot camera worth pointing out (Although it does not do 1080 60p. I picked up a Kodak Zi8 pocket digital camcorder. This camera is a little over 162$ on line and produces absolutely phenomenal 1080 p 30, 720 p60 and 720 p30 along with SD video and records onto SD/SDHC memory cards and has an external stereo mic jack with full manual level control. This camera has its own editing software built into it and auto installs and updates itself assign as you connect the camera to your PC or MAC ! It's really worth mentioning.

Yep, Ikegami is priding itself as being part of the 1080 60p revolution.

Does that Ikonoskop even exist yet? Seems we've been waiting for ever for it.

Add SI-2k to the list, that'll do 80fps at 2k I seem to remember.

Since they are also releasing a 3D version, I would think that the 2D version should be almost ready to sell.

Says July 2010 now, the guys on the forum at their site have been getting irate at the lack of news and the delays. July - I'll believe it when I see it!

The Sanyo does indeed record 1080p 60. But finding a computer to play back the AVCHD files...

Cineform can't convert the files, and no editor I know of can edit 1080p 60.

It's a very good quality camera for a consumer model, though. Alas, it is 35Mbps tops.

Sorry for bumping, but Panasonic TM700 1080p60 clips can be edited in Sony Vegas Pro 9 no problem. But, the only thing that could play 1080p60 AVC at full framerate appears to be the Hardware Acceleration chips on the Nvidia Geforce GF100 Fermi cards (GTX 400 series). And even then, the Hardware Accelerator load is nearly 100%.

However, once the Nanoflash can accept 3G-SDI and can get a 1080p60 codec (Might want to try WebM even), then a 1080p60 NanoFlash is a possibility.

Edit:

From the WebM FAQ

Quote:

VP8 uses 14 bits for width and height, so the maximum resolution is 16384x16384 pixels. VP8 places no constraints on framerate or datarate.

Just replace OGG with PCM and you've got yourself an open-source 1080p60 solution with unlimited bitrate.

Although it seems that in theory is possible, i haven't see any implementation of MPEG-2 p60/50 at 1920 x 1080.
To get this kind of stuff is one of the reasons MP4 has been developed.
