- Actually, that should be 1500 x 1250 thereabouts.

- There is a difference between what you see on tv and the paused image on a vcr,
- this is because with tv you see many frames in sequence and this averages out

- calculates a higher resolution, this is what makes it different from other
- products (as far as I know). It is supposed to be able to grab an image in
- 1/60th of a second, whether that is good or bad commparitively I don't know.
