We got some problems with HD video

Because of the want to have a really good video quality, we have decided to shoot the video at 1080i resolution. Then, we have over 15 GB for 15 mins of video and that's big!
The machine took a long time to post-process.
--> It's not feasible!

So, we decided to reduce the resolution for the next shooting to 720x576.
