I know. The major Hollywood-movies have the budget for that, and that's why
they sound so good re. dialogue-wise.

I can't imagine Sony et al cheap-skating on the sound, by giving us worse
sound with MP2-recording on the semi-pro cameras, than what we had before.
It would be bad for their sales. But you won't get 24/96 recording
in-camera for now. It would require compressing the video more to handle
such a huge audio data-stream. But don't count it out for the future, when
technology has progressed a step further.
