To Sell HDV filmed by Z7
 
Is there any way to convert HDV to full HD; will I be able to sell my footage/film to ANY TV station/studio etc. or they will require at least entry level CineAlta Ex1

Master to HDCAM, and don't tell them where it came from. That's what I plan to do.

Saw this tonight in a thread in the EX1 section.

However, early on with XDCAM HD, it was the opinion of most who saw the quality of images, that XDCAM HD is not squarely in the middle, but closer to the top end. The higher data rate removes a lot of the motion artifacts that can plague HDV. It's not the inter-frame compression of long GOP at fault, it's how much compression and how intelligently it's applied that determine the outcome.

I wonder what this stock HD firm will say about the PDW 700 with its 50mb 4:2:2 color space. If they try to call that image less than HD, they are nuts.

Also a reminder, Discovery HD has one of the most rigorous acceptance criteria for HD and they certified XDCAM HD @ 35VBR as acceptable for unlimited content acquisition, whereas they limit HDV to no more than 15% of a given program.

All is not lost though, at some point, you'll have the ability to strap on a portable flash recorder and take the HDSDI feed into a very high quality codec.

I have a chance to buy Canon G1 with HD-SDI and I was wondering if you have any recommendation re: portable HD-SDI recording unit so I could record to the unit directly in the field...
