HDTV camera - should we buy this?

03-02-2005, 12:27 AM

We're about to produce some amateur hardcore sites .. and we're thinking about instead of buying these couples a "old-fashioned" video camera and a digital camerea, we would buy a HDTV camera.

Will the stills from a HDTV camera be good enough (with the correct light and all) to be used as "pictures" (read : not looking as just video caps)

Anyone with any experience in this?

If the answer is "Yeah, go for HDTV" .. which cameras rocks?

HDTV Camera

As far as I know there are no HDTV cameras available at the moment... existing prosumer cameras like Canon XL series already capture material at a higher resolution than is transmitted...........
The move to HDTV is likely to be driven by the satillite companies (its rumoured SKY in the UK are going to start broadcasting some test programs) As a starting point suggest u look at post production systems, and see what they're saying about hdtv output.....
btw... we currently post our video material as mpeg2, for quality reasons... has great quality but problems in people downloading it and playing it... any suggestions???

mov,wmv, maybe divx

SIG TOO SMALL! Maximum 1200x600 button and no more than 30 text lines of ALL SIZES and COLORS. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 6240x4800 instead of a 1024x800.

Somtimes better quality is not always the best. I have come across movies where the quality of the work just shows more of the girls imperfections

Be careful when shooting with HiDefinition video or photo cameras. R

...there are quite a few HD cameras out there, ranging from 720p to 1080i, i mean consumer or maybe PROsumer grades, not very sure u could use them for pics... the bigger rez ones are interlaced, and the progresive ones are only 720 pixels wide...

all i can say is do yoru homework. jvc and sony have a prosumer model out now. they run around 2500. other then that you are most likely going to find the panasonic hd varicam however this is big bucks. some of the bigboys shoot on this camera.

you have to think about editing the footage. once you have a hd camera you have to have a tape deck unless you plan on burning out your camera on playback to get it into the editor. also the final product...is it for broadcast?
if so it has to meet broadcast standards. if you plan on using it for internet only then file size will be be a concern.

That's not necessarilly a good plan. You want good stills, take them with a digital still camera. After all, most of the frames will not make great stills anyway because of the motion. If you want to spcifically shoot Hi-def in HDV format with a camera like a Sony FX-1 and edit the footage in hi-def and then use the footage to make huge hi-def WMV fies to d/l, or for hi-def tv broadcast or eventual hi def DVD format then go ahead.

I use all those HDV cams for jobs but I still think that the DVX kicks ass in image quality. If you are shooting for the web then you are just gonna downconvert to DV anyway and it does not look as good as progressive DVX footage.

Plus widescreen is a lousy aspect ratio for gonzo and reality porn.
