Yi.. LOL! Late 80's came to my mind first. I was just trying not to stir the waters too much!

Devin, thanks for your reply.

"If television is your end medium, I can't recommend shooting with a DVX enough."

You meant TV as opposed to internet..?? Or Film...?

I want to shoot for DVD release and Digibeta or high-quality projection showcasing... I may make a Film reel later, but I want to keep that option open

By television I meant NTSC in general, so you'd be fine going to DVD, and certainly the internet. I've never worked with digi-beta before, so I can't vouch for that. As far as the projection goes - are you talking about LCD projection of a 640x480 image? DV blown up doesn't look too hot unless done with the proper hardware/software, lots of artifacting and such. As long as you're careful about what you shoot and avoid as much grain as possible you should be alright though.

video gives error. Can't open the page.

By the way, what needs to be added to make a dvx shot movie be filmy like?
