No offence was meant but I think you know that! :))
I was just making the point don't compare the incomparable. By definition
you were making a comparison. But hey HDV is what it is. I've seen some
great stuff shot with the mini 35 and would cetainly use it in the right
circumstances.
With the HD spec including resolutions down to 720x480p then personally I'd
have to say HDV was indeed HD.
