1080i requires a CRT. All other tvs convert it to 720p but add a blur to the image in the process.

 Rubbish, all non-CRT TVs deinterlace 1080i etc. They don't convert it to 720p (unless they're old 720p sets) they convert it to 1080p60, whilst losing about 5% off the margin (19% in total) to overscan. Even if 1080p was a broadcast format it would still need to be resized for overscan when displayed on a tv. I'm not sure why you think it "blurs" the image - modern tv sets have excellent deinterlace chips.

720p images also have to be converted to the TVs resolution whilst losing at least 19% of the resolution to overscan.

Getting back on track, here are some images from the P&S VHS. Let me know if there are any specific parts you want to see. They are presented in their native resolution. The first image is... ironic?

 Nice, thanks. :)
