Pixboom Spark 2K 1800 fps mode: Will it be lineskipped?

I have a question to the team and engineers. Will the 2K mode be lineskipped? The Freefly Wave does 1440 fps in 2K but it uses lineskipping and the image is degraded with even more aliasing/moire and softness in this mode. I’m hoping this won’t be the case for the Pixboom Spark. You can see an example below of how much worse the 2K 1440 fps mode is on the Freefly Wave.

The 1800+ fps resolution is a vertical crop of the sensor, at full width. There is no skipping or binning - it essentially captures a thinner strip from the sensor, something like 4608x1088 at 1836fps. There are also resolution modes that discard the horizontal extra pixels (to yield a more useable aspect ratio), but that doesn’t increase the framerate, only the total amount of frames that can be captured.

Thank you for explaining!
