Is BMPCC HDMI intelaced or progressive

PostWed Aug 14, 2013 11:51 am

The camera was originally announced with an interlaced output, Alan Tepper says it's progressive.
The specification don't mention it.

Can anybody who has a camera confirm, please?

Its Progressive in a interlaced wrapper, since HDMI is a consumer connector that must play nice with TVs.

If it works like the SDI on the BMCC, you'll need to turn overlays off to make it PsF.
