No one is accusing anyone for his choise of medium,subject or pricing.It's just that anyone who has decent eyesight can view a full resolution screenshot and decide for himself how acceptable is such an image as 1080p.
To my untrained eyes it's is good as video shot from a nokia cellphone camera from 7 years ago.
Or perhaps the impressionistic quality of the image eludes me.

7 years ago, there was no FHD cellphone video from Nokia ??
Do you mean the still image from Andy's butterfly shot, if yes, it is not up to FHD standard. IMO
Mine is clearly win.

These are facts.... not fiction :-)
Seriously Andy, not trying to burst your bubble and say your clips aren't great... I think they are great. I just don't think they are the quality level of 1080p. I don't care what you sell them as.
I think what I'm trying to do is help everyone here understand slow motion a little better... and how the sensor is generating the image.
Like it says in the article, you'd be better off taking 480fps and using twixtor to get 960 vs shooting 960.
ANYWAY....
I ended up returning my rx10ii a little premature. I finally got around to editing all the footage and I feel it is much cleaner in low light and also sharper than my ax100. I am selling my ax100 (put a forum post up on p5 if anyone is interested) and I have the rx10ii on order from bh photo. It should arrive tomorrow. ROUND 2!

dapoopta: you say the RX10II is sharper then the AX100.
This is really interesting and intriguing as the AX100 is over-sharpened and the main complaint is we cannot tone-down the sharpening.

The lower light is what I would like to have compared to AX-100. Scott, from what you have seen is the noise in shadow lower than with the AX-100? Agreed, 1080 is 1080. Upsizing always degrades quality, some more than others.
I'm still waiting to see the full size sensor coming out soon.

The full size sensor will be the a7rii , which I am going to order once it becomes available.
videostock, what I noticed was on wide shots when looking at the video @ 100% the rx10ii was much sharper and had more detail.
The video also feels to have more dynamic range with the rx10ii.
I get a warm fuzzy when working with the rx10ii footage that I don't get with the ax100. I feel like the ax100 is my hv30 and the rx10ii is more of my DSLR footage (you remember that 2010 year feeling :) ).

Hello Vader ..... are lightning strikes at 960 fps acceptable?

Yes, it will overheat after like 20 minutes of non stop recording... I don't shoot anything longer than 1 minute usually :-)
It does suck to have to deal with something like this, but if the lowlight is amazing and it looks as good as some of the samples it is worth the hassle. I'm very excited for this cam, reminds me of my 5d mark II as a 4k camera.
