I'm a big fan of acquiring at the highest resolutions and then
downsampling, but I can think of a bunch of reasons for not using 1080p
cameras, starting with the fact that, until very recently, they didn't
exist. In a non-DPM camera, there's also the possibility of interline
twitter. The sensitivity of a 1080p camera is lower than that of a
1080i camera. They cost more. Should I go on?
If everyone should use the highest-rez cameras, we should all be
shooting UDTV, with 32 million full-color pixels per frame.
TTFN,
Mark
