I believe that was said when S-VHS came out. Then DV.

Subject: [Avid-L2] Re: AVCCam, AVCHD AVCHD Lite, my brain hurts?
I read AVC Intra is different than AVCHD. Both are H264 but as you said AVCHD is long gop while AVC-I is all I frames. I'll bet that was what my confusion was regarding a consumer version. Now I have to wonder how I could possibly be working with AVCHD in a "professional" environment. According to google searches AVCHD is for consumers. But my shows go out on cable networks etc... why would they be shot on a consumer camera? ;-) I guess I'm just building momentum for the race to the bottom.

Sony's line of AVCHD cameras are called "NXCam." I've also read about a AVCHD lite that only supports 720P/30. In the back of my mind I thought there was a consumer version too but I may be mistaken. IIRC I worked on a show that had shot with a consumer version of AVCCam or AVCHD a couple years back and that required the footage be converted to P2 by the free main concepts software. Then the P2 file was imported into Avid and they offlined at full res. For my online I just consolidated the final sequence with handles. What I'm finding through googling is AVCHD import support started with ver. 5 but no ama support yet, is this right?
