(I won't make a distinction between HDV and other HD for this purpose) Again, don't compare some badly shot HD porn, to the best shot SD porn. Make it a fair comparison. Compare your own best work, or that of someone you respect that is well lit, with attractive models and good makeup, and just change the camera from an SD camera to a HDV camera leaving all other things equal. There is no way that you couldn't see the difference in the perceived quality of the image, especially in the details even if the video editor encoded the hdv footage to a mere say 3500 Kbps bitrate at 1280 x 720. Yes the file sizes will be bigger but you can always offer smaller frame sizes for smaller files.

I just told you some of the reasons. But another one is few models and even fewer make up artists can cover all the skin imperfections on models. HD works best on top end productions, Amateur, Gonzo, etc does not need it. So unless the models have flawless skin and the make up artist knows what they are doing the over all effect is to show more clearly the flaws that bring the fantasy crashing down.
The people impressed with image quality are not
usually the guys with a credit card in one hand and their dick in the other one.
