This thread has (predictably) wandered from my original point, which was not Video vs Still but Video as 30fps motor drive to GET to Still. The quality for this is already here, I think it is more of a question as to whether autofocus can keep up.
Think fashion photog with supermodel and fan blowing on hair as she sets her "looks". Burst of 30 fps video can be used rather than 6 fps motor drives to multiply the number of "shots" to choose from by a factor of 5. I see the same thing for sporting events when the moment of "The Shot" is even more critical. As the football touches the fingertips or the defensive end hits the QB causing a fumble, you will have 30 frames per sec (or whatever 4x video is doing by then) to choose the perfect shot for the cover of SI. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
