The only real difference is 10P vs. 10i in video mode
Joey D
Yes, Sony reports it as 1080i @ 60fps, this is effectively the same as 1080p @ 30fps, not like in the old days when interlaced video was much worse.
I've read a bit more about Sony's 1920x1080 @ 60i, and from what I can tell its actually the same as 30p, read the section titled "30P or 60i – Which Is It?" here:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/camcorders/vg10.shtml
"Most people interested in video know that interlaced is old tech, that all modern TVs are progressive devices, and that therefore Progressive video recording is to be preferred, because it potentially offers twice the vertical resolution of interlaced. But Sony AVCHD video cameras (at least until one gets to their higher-end prosumer and pro gear) is speced as recording 60i. But, when you read the fine print you discover that qt least some of these cameras (such as the VG10) really aren't recording 60i, they're capturing 30P and placing it in a 60i "wrapper"."
