2005 HDTV Report, Part 14: HDTV Video Cameras

[Rodolfo]

This part 14 deals with HDTV video cameras that might interest consumers. The HDV Format was announced in the summer of 2003 and was established as an official format in the fall of 2003. Canon, JVC, Sharp, and Sony are the primary manufacturers supporting this HD format that uses mini-DV videotape, MPEG-2 and at resolutions of 1080i and 720p. The companies indicated that camcorders could be made that can record on the same mini-DV both regular and HD formats. Although the cameras from JVC and Sony included on this part are still available, they have been recently upgraded to newer models and those will be included on the next 2006 HDTV Technology report.
