Re: Best HD Camera for 4:3 NTSC Protection

As for the "Why HD instead of SD" question: The HD imagers give better color, wider contrast ratios and a better overall image. Dowconversion happens when coming out of the deck. I see that you said "cable" station. Prices have really dropped on HD imaging and you might go to a HD rental house and ask them. But first, ask the client why they want origination on HD. Do they see any HD in their future? If I were shooting for cable, my choice would either be the HDX-900 or a Sony F-350. Make sure there's enough money in it to make a decent profit. If this is a long term comittment, get a contract from the client.
