Hi,
Just my 5 cents, Sky UK broadcast their channels 1080i. So if Sky UK are recording using 720p we would never get it anyway as the International pick-ups will only be 1080i from their broadcast centre.

I agree.
I have a full HD LCD (Samsung) and a 720P Plasma (Panny) -and on balance (comparing differnt types of content) the Plasma has hands-down the best picture.
Where the LCD shows what could almost be called macro-blocking / speckles (with certain types of input) the Plasma shows smooth/even colour transitions, that are also much more lifelike.
Theer is just a sense of depth to the Plasma that the LCD just doesn't have -I just can't quite put it into words..

NCIS is shot on 35 mm film, so the idea of using SD or HD digital video cameras is erroneous. The film is telecined into 1080p24 etc. No major US programs are shot with video cameras. Video cameras are generally only used for news and studio based shows, e.g., Ellen in 4:3 SD or Rove 16:9 HD (not US but proves my point).
That explains a lot. Surely programmes shot in native 1080 HD will be better than film. Haven't seen a movie or US drama yet that matches Rove or the cricket for image sharpness.

Not necessarily. 35mm film has way better resolution that 1080p
cyril7:Not necessarily. 35mm film has way better resolution that 1080p
This little chestnut on the end of that statement gets mentioned quite often but is missleading. A 1080p24 image has no more resolution than a 1080i image of the same film source.
Cheers

DarkKnight08: I have noticed no difference in freeview HD and Sky for TV 3.
Can someone confirm that Home and Away runs in HD? There is no HD sign before it starts.
