Frame fringe issues
 

Per fringes on other cams, I've posted some Panasonic EZ and XL1 grabs. They use a black bar to cover the edges.

The XL1/s has the same (similar) problem. It has been covered in length here

When the server crashed in July (maybe this thread was the cause of all the heat) this thread was very active and a number of posts around the beginning of July were lost.

This is a no win argument. You're either on one side of the fence or the other. For some the line (fringing) is lost time and money. Plain and simple. For others it's no big deal and doesn't affect there production or post production in any manner. The important thing is to be aware that it's there before you buy. Nobody likes surprises in this business.

I agree. It did not bother me with my XL1, even for web output.
