3ccd vs. HD
by Chele Gutek on Aug 17, 2008 at 10:40:22 pm

I am researching for a project requiring that I shoot footage in a studio for a how-to DVD. The DVD would then be sold, but also projected at seminars. If I shot with my sony vx2000 3ccd camera instead of an HD camera, would the quality be significantly different if the company producing the DVDs was not mastering to a HD DVD? I would prefer to use my own camera but if there will be a huge quality difference I will be forced to rent one. Thank you.

The VX-2000 is an excellent camera for the type of work you are doing (non-broadcast) and the DVD can look very good with proper encoding to MPEG-2.

Using an HD camera would result in a 16:9 image and would also require that the video be downconverted to standard definition at some point.
