How recently did you talk to the Skywalker guy? As we know, Lucas is shooting Episode II in digital and I doubt he would settle for anything less than film quality or above. The guy's a pefectionist and a heavy visual director, if nothing else.
Have you read the specs on the new camera he's planning on using? The prototype was unveiled (a joint effort from Sony and Panavision). Read the press releases and specs. You seem like the tech buss and would probablh be able to make a good assesment of the quality. Supposedly, the new camera solves all the old problems of digital video (contrast, resolution, etc.)
