seems to me it might be a while before they put 3 8mp ccds in a prosumer camera. Why not just call this a wishlist. A lot of the specs don't seem like they make sense in the same camera. Most people who are concerned about datarates and harddrive space enough to use heavily compressed mpeg4 probably would prefer to spend harddrive on higher resolution or less compression than on 48bit color depth and 4:4:4 sampling.

You're all right. This impossible idea might not be possible until 2010, so let's try to perdict what they might come up with. If they do think of this, some of the specs would be toned down.

With the XLH1, we're still a baby step to true 1080p60. Sony's next HD cam must not dissapoint! They know that they've got more competition and they must work hard to get some of their profits back.
