I bought my HD-A1 in PAL. It has 50i and 25F modes. It does not have an option to shoot in 60, 30 or 24 modes.

I think you can get it in Canon service centers for a fee.

Here in NTSC land it costs $500.00 to add the other formats to the Canon cameras and it has to be sent in to a service center to add the modes.

What camera are you talking about here, did you ever post the results?

QUOTE=Zsolt Gordos;594192]Just took a very interesting footage last night.

It contains everything that would give a HD cam hard times: intense colors, fire and the entire thing was shot in low light.

The result on my 50" plasma is breathtaking... (used settings advised by Tony), no noise, pitch black blacks, skin tones and details even in low light, kicking colors. Who said this cam had low light issues?? Gain was never above 6dB but sometimes it was even too much.

I will try to put together some short clip this week and post. The image quality knocks socks :)[/QUOTE]

Yes, I posted a link. It is here again:

It is only "youtube" quality though. I am looking for a solution where to post bigger files.

Give www.blip.tv a look. You can post multiple versions of a file including HD.
