HV20/40 The Difference?

[Doom Noir]

I hope this topic hasn't been covered already. I'm F.N.G. and asking a question. Is the only "real" difference between the HV20 and HV40. PF24 and Native 24p? If a person was to use a program like Neoscene for the PF24, would the footage look the same as the native 24P footage? Thanks in advance for any positive feed back.

1) It's been.
2) Quite the only 'major' difference. Then add the custom button function to replace the BLC one.
3) Cineform's Neoscene will capture as an AVI with intermediate codec for a better compression (as well as a chroma subsampling from 4:2:0 to 4:2:2) and it will at the same time, remove the "added frames" in the pulldown removal process. So you'll end up with a "native" 24p .avi file instead of a standard .m2ts file with PF24 (24 fps scanned progressively and wrapped in a 60i container with pulldown for compliancy)
