True or False: the EX-1 is true 1920x1080 HD?

But is the rest of the footage labelled correctly? Quoting again from the original post, she says:

".........not true 1920 x1080 HD as is all our other HD content."

Which rather begs the question how their other content originated. If she's accurate then it can't be HDCAM - not good enough at 1440x1080, not DVCProHD, that's less still at 1280x1080. So maybe the question is what camera and format does one need to shoot on to get it labelled same as "all our other HD content."?

If people call to inquire about the footage and she talks to them as she has to Michael than she is discouraging sales. Also XDCAM digital files does not differentiate between Standard Def XDCAM and HD (or EX) and one may very well mistake the footage for lower res 16:9 SD.
