Definition of HDV as taken from
the book: "How to Shoot, Edit & Distribute HDV"
by Andrew Lock:
HDV is HD on a
budget. It’s
also been called HD for the masses because it has opened up the opportunity for
many more people to work with high definition.
During the early years of HD production, there was only one option for capturing
HD footage, you had no choice but to work with very expensive high end equipment
– HD cameras that cost more than $65,000 for example. HD was definitely out of
the price range that consumers could afford, and even beyond the reach of most
small to medium production companies. The words ‘inexpensive’ and ‘HD’ were
simply never seen together!
In essence, HDV was created as an inexpensive way to capture and work with
high definition video. Although high-end HD equipment still commands high
prices and produces the ultimate picture quality, HDV has paved the way for
low-cost HD production. As the initials of the format imply, HDV is a
combination of HD and DV – it is HD recorded on to DV tape.
