Would like to ask whether mirroring from new iPad to apple tv 3 can output 1080p image and video?

As AirPlay mirroring is different from AirPlay streaming, I doubt it can out 1080p from new iPad to atv3. Unfortunately, I don't have new iPad for such test.
Now I use HDMI adaptor, it can output 1080p video streaming from my New IPad directly to my television. I worry cannot output 1080p video if through Apple Tv. It seems downgrade the video quality at this part by way of apple tv.
It really depends on which AirPlay Technolgy you use, and where you're going to stream from. I can't see any problem by streaming 1080p movie together with DD5.1 from itune library of my iMAC to ATV3. Indeed, I tried couple of mp4 like that. And, I can also mirror the whole 1920x1080 screen from mountain lion to TV via ATV3 but only with stereo. However, my ipad2 can only output 720p through movie apps such that I can't confirm the similar feature of your new iPad to ATV3.
Right, the moshi HDMI adaptor should be the best in terms of HD audio feature. I've tried that and still have that gear nearly brandnew in my drawer. It can output DTS DD5.1 from MAC OSX, comparing with DD5.1 output from ATV3. And there is no difference for the video quality. That applies to MAC OSX regardless it is iMAC or MBP.
Well, it may be another story when it comes to new iPad for its mirroring feature. But I can assure the streaming feature from new iPad will have 1080 output to ATV3 if the source, such as mp4 using their native apps Movie, is at 1080p.
