How was the audio? That may having been the one thing this title on blu could offer.

Just a note, while someone listed it as PAL 720x576i.
What you see in this movie isnt that.

First of all that camera has a 4:3 sensor. So its widescreen mode loses some res.

Second it's Frame mode isnt true 25p...so thats a hit in resolution.
That's why we traded up for the Canon XL2..which had a full resolution 16:9 mode and true 24p. In short The Xl1 falls short of what's capable on standard dvd.

Not saying its a bad movie but I would argue that its never "the directors intended vision" to get a standard mini dv "look". That's a budget restraint.

If someone wants a grainy look then 16mm is a good option.Or underexposing 35mm and using push process in the developing. I think film grain can be beautiful. Pixelization..not so beautiful.
