Canon C500 internal MXF HD rec vs. 2K priority mode active

[Luis Reggiardo]

Hi!

 

Can someone confirm if the image quality recorded OUT TO MXF is the SAME or not when using these two different modes?

 

- Only MXF internalrecording to CF (1920x1080 8-bit 4:2:2)

 

- 2K priority mode enabled, 1920x1080 output selected AND recording to MXF internally to CF.

 

I am obligued to activate 2K priority in order to have the 2x MON outputs enabled (not active on "only MXF), but read somewhere that the resulting MXF signal recorded internally is derived from the 2K/HD output,whereas if using the "only MXF"mode, the signal bypass one process (Sensor->MXF vs Sensor>2K/HD>MXF).

 

Is that right?

 

Thanks

Luis
