Simon, Unfortunately I'm getting jerky movement/frame dropping too, on both vimeo and youtube so it's kinda hard to assess. The colours are certainly very good, but sometimes I felt the focus was not quite broadcast standard....maybe it's a depth of field thing...or maybe it's a resolution problem in my video card or monitor?..I dunno very much about photography. To go off at a tangent (as usual), I was testing a Plasma HD TV and accidentally ended up on a channel showing an episode of "The Prisoner". (Number 6 and all that..) I remember talking to you a couple of years back about that "Technicolor" look, with the vivid matt sheets of colour that we both liked. Having been to Portmerion (where the series was filmed) I recognised some of the locations and could confirm that the film portrayal was very much more "larger than life", compared to my 35mm holiday snapshots (Pentax). Looking carefully, I could see that they were getting a lot of that effect by very careful and skilled lighting technicians taking care of the smallest detail with fill-ins and diffused spots etc. Also, I noticed that they kept the sets very "clean" (image wise), with nothing so much as a tiny leaf accidentally blowing along the ground during the take. A lot of the 60's style stuff seems to be done like this and athough it has that sort of "unreal" and slightly "plastic" look, I kinda like it! cheers, Ron
