I've been looking at Videovision also (see post in .multimedia) but have heard that its resolution is 24 frames per second. Q. Is Radius trying to establish a consumer standard resolution of 24 fps or are they going to do like the Video Spiget thing and have two versions, the professional board (at a different resolution) costing more money? Also, I thought the standard was 30fps, 30-drop, or 29 fps; where does 24fps come from? I would also like to see the incorporation of Vertical Integrated Time Code (read and write) but then again maybe they've stuck a different standard there too. Oh well, hopefully someone at Radius will hire a consultant or two to help them create a product that can work cohesively with existing project studios. Synchronization seems to be an ongoing exponential problem when cutting and pasteing and 24 fps doesn't help much once the rest of the industry decides on an algorhythm to fix the current problems with the current standards. Additionally, my oppinion is based on what I've heard which is unfortunate because in the literature I have on the product there is no mention of resolution. It would be nice to see more specifications and less copywriter comparison stuff so that we'd have a better view of things. After all, if its in writing it must be true, especially with all the pretty color pictures and all. maurices
