Strange Vertical Lines at DVinfo.net

Benjamin Eckstein · February 2nd, 2008, 02:36 PM

So after having my EX for a week, (and it mostly just sitting in my office since I had other shoots all week) I finally took it out for a stroll. I came home and plugged the component out into my 50" Panasonic Plasma in my living room. This tv has a resolution of something live 1366x760 or something (basically a 720p set). I noticed that the clips shot at 1080p on the EX showed pretty prominent vertical lines across the screen, and then the overcranked 720p footage showed significantly less (although maybe slightly). I plugged in my XH-A1 through its component out and this camera (shooting 1440x1080) was not showing these lines. I am hoping this is an issue with my tv. I, unfortunately do not have any 1080 resolution screens just yet (on order).
Any similar findings?

I have a 50" Pioneer plasma with the same resolution and have never seen this issue.
Can you get hold of another camera to compare?
