Hi All
Having upgraded from the HMC70 which shoots 13mbps as the highest mode, I did a wedding with the HMC80 in HG mode so the footage would sorta match the HMC70 as the 2nd camera.
What I wanted to ask is that even in HG mode (13mbps) the video from the 80 is pristine!!! For you guys with the 40 (or 80) is the 24mbps highest mode on the camera really worth it??? Is there a huge difference in maybe sharpness or something else.... in PH mode on the 80 it eats SDHC space up twice as fast (almost) so I'm really interested to know if the footage is visually a lot better than at 13mbps??????
Comments be be much appreciated as my 2nd 80 arrived yesterday and so I'm doing this weekend's wedding with the two new cameras. If PH mode is the way to go and makes a big difference then I also will need some bigger cards!!!!
