Quick rundown of the camcorded Episode II bootlegs I have:

Gold edition

Menu:

Standard PAL resolution DVD, VOBs dated 13.05.2002

Factory pressed DVD

Camcording.  The image is dark, but resolves more information in bright areas than the other two. Also crops off more of the image than the other two.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Superbit edition

Menu (Motion menu):


Standard PAL resolution DVD, VOBs dated 24.05.2002

Factory pressed DVD

Camcording. The image is bright and detailed. Retains most of the image area. Image is blown out in highlights.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CD-Master edition

Menu:


Half resolution (352x240) NTSC DVD, VOBs dated 24.06.2002

Camcording. Appears to be the same source as the "Superbit" edition, but before the aspect ratio and perspective shift were corrected.

This came on a DVD-R and was encoded in the lowest DVD resolution allowed. Also the only NTSC version in this group.

 

Screenshots to follow.
