Will AVCHD camcorders degrade my video quality?

23 Apr

While looking at the 2009 releases from Sony/Canon/Panasonic, I’ve noticed that a lot of the camcorders being released will be formating to AVCHD. This causes me to continue to remain apprehensive about purchasing an newer HD model.

QUESTION #1) Is it true that AVCHD recording onto hard disk drives (HDD) will not produce as good a picture as camcorders formating to HDV on MiniDV tapes?

And I want to stay eco-friendly with my film making….

QUESTION #2) Is there any Hard Disk Drive (HDD) camcorders available out now that don’t format to AVCHD? (That is, if it DOES degrade the video quality.)

QUESTION #3) Is HDD a good investment for me considering I’m a film student? Can I stay eco-friendly and switch to HDD or is it a smart decision to stick to MiniDV?

** A FEW MORE FOR THE CAMCORDER SAVVY**
QUESTION #4) Which has better video performance/quality: Sony’s HDV HC-1 camcorder (despite its’ age) or the Canon Vixia HV30?

QUESTION #5) Is there any cameras coming out this year, in consideration to what I’m looking for in a camcorder/your answer to QUESTION #1, that you know is worth waiting for?

QUESTION #6) Given what you know, do you think that the new video features on the Canon Vixia HV40 (March 2009) without a doubt are worth waiting for, despite it being similar to the HV30?

Intel® Integrated Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 will this card play AVCHD (HD) Video without issues?

09 Apr

Want to buy a Dell Hybrid, it comes with this card, was wondering if the card will play HD video fine, no hick ups?? The actual standard is AVCHD (sony and panasonic camcorders make it) need to play video straight from harddrive.

For semi-professional editing and output to web and DVD, should I be shopping for HDV or AVCHD camcorders.?

13 Mar

I’m interested in the benefits and pitfalls to each format in regards to shooting, transfer, workflow, output, and longevity. While tapeless does seem to be the obvious wave of the future, HDV seems very well established in the professional world, especially where software (FCP) is concerned. Should I be looking at right now, or thinking about what’s around the corner?
