Very interesting video comparison! Do any of the video cameras they tested have the option to output RAW video data?

I think a raw format is beyond current consumer technology. Just too much data. A single hd frame has over 2 million pixels, times 3 for rgb, times 25 for fps, gives 2 000 000 x 3 x 25 = 150 Mb for 1 second of hd data.
