Does the recorder record in 16:9

I'm sorry to say I can't answer that. But did try calling toll free customer service as they were really helpful to me.

I believe it records whatever the input (from antenna or cable) is sending. I am catching TV programs via the regular antenna, and I would get it in 4:3 ratio or full screen (16:9) at 480 or 1080 resolution. When I watch the recorded program, it tends to fill up the screen regardless of the original ratio recorded. If the original ratio was 4:3, the screen would look flatten and I would have to adjust the TV's so-called wide-display setting to bring it down to a normal appearance.

Yes, the ratio is 16:9 widescreen. The image will fill the entire screen in 3D. You can record either 1080i60x2 or 1080p24x2 or half frame SBS 1080i60, all of which are compatible with the Panasonic 3D TVs. I've got a 50" plasma Panasonic 3D TV myself. You will either have to hook the camera directly to the TV, burn SBS to regular bluray and play in a Bluray3D player (just half resolution with this method), or get Powerdirector 11 software to edit your footage and burn full 1080p24x2 HD resolution Bluray3D. The images made by this camera are stunning and sure to please in either 2D or 3D. I also highly recommend the Cyclopital 3D adapters for awesome 3D closeups and hyperstereo landscapes. You can't beat the price for a camera that does native Bluray3D format (1080p24x2). Competing cameras start at $3K. There are some example videos on youtube taken with the camera. Be sure to check those out and set the resolution to the highest setting.

No, it doesn't do it in the camera, but the Panorama mode will take shots continuously and the software provided with the camera will stitch them together. I often find that the 16:9 aspect ratio gets me the results I want without the fuss.

Default recording seems to be at 1080h x 1440w which is a standard (1.333) ratio. However, you can easily set it to 1920x1080 or even 720p (which is produces a file size that is one quarter the size of the 1080). It really depends on what you're shooting for-- mobile screens? TV screens? Projection?We have two of these we use every Sunday, for delayed projection at other locations. We love them.

Yes as far as I remember you can select when to use 21:9 mode with the zoom feature as you stated. Some movies automatically default to it.

All recording is SD (480), but inputs and outputs can be HD. I've found the loss of quality to be acceptable, considering the benefits of SD format (lower cost, record to DVDs, etc). This recorder will accept HD input via the ATSC digital tuner, or SD (480) input from other sources like analog RCA-jack inputs, S-Video, DV from a camcorder, or the now-obsolete NTSC analog TV tuner. All content is recorded in SD (480p I believe) format, and my experience has been that the 4:3 and 16:9 anthropomorphic widescreen modes are handled automatically based on the source. (My Sony TV automatically shows all content in the correct aspect ratio.) This unit can output 480i for older TVs if you need, but does NOT have an RF modulator built-in. It can also output 480p or HD (as 720p, 1080i, or 1080p) via an HDMI cable to your widescreen TV, so you can select which one does the upscaling.

You will only get the advertised resolution at the native aspect ratio. Unfortunately I am not sure what ratio is native to the 40D, but it may also have had a reduced resolution for the 16:9 aspect. The difference in 12 to 10 megapixels should not have a big effect on your prints, you can also crop from the 4:3 images to get what you would like - with of course the the same loss of pixels, but you may feel more in control of what you lose this way.

It will record over once the card is full. 16 gigs is plenty. Don't worry about the card running out of room.

Yes, in my application the 16:9 screen is filled. I take the VGA output of a security DVR and use the Etekcity to input the HDMI of a 1080p 52" Samsund LCD TV. Hope this helps. jp

Hi Rose, I am sorry but I don't know the answer to that one. I've never had opportunity to record. I hope you find the answer!

No Sir..... It records to a micro SD Card. I recommend the 8 or 16GB size..................

It outputs in 16:9 and fills my widescreen being fed from a 4:3 VCR composite output. Smaller 16:9 displays these days are not that expensive.

I don't recall. If it did it was very small. It needs a 16 or 32 gb card to record more than an hour or two.

On the one I have....Both. 16:9 is it's native, but the 4:3 is available and looks good. Mine also has a 16:10 option which is what I have mine set on now. Great picture.

no, it records in 30p, but since it is in 3D, you have 2 video stream each is 1920x1080.

Yes, we are able to record channels 1-16 on the board through the USB and software. You can choose the tracks you want.
