Professional Video Equipment

Digital video equipment has gotten so much better through the years that there are now systems that equal film in terms of image quality. Such high-definition (HD) systems are so expensive, however, that they are out of reach for the majority of productions. The next tier of professional systems usually use either the DV or Beta formats, which come surprisingly close to film quality.

The main reasons why so many production companies choose digital video equipment are its fast turnaround capabilities and its cost savings. Per-minute costs of digital storage media are fractions of the per-minute costs of film stocks. When you include the costs of film development, color correction and duplication, the costs for shooting on film soar.

In terms of digital manipulation, digital effects, and plain old editing, digital video also beats film. To layer in digital effects on exposed film, the entire sequence must be transferred to a digital medium, manipulated, and transferred back onto film. Digital video is already in the correct medium. Digital video is also available immediately for editing.

For many in the production community, digital video is still a bit of an unknown.
