Re: videotape data


Sharpness of the image did not seem to be a problem. Our little camcorder
claims a fastest shutter speed of 10 000, giving a very dark but sharp (in
the sense of eliminating blurring due to motion) image.

This and other comments, including the documentation for Videopoint,
seem to say that shutter speed is the critical issue in obtaining
sharp images. Has anyone found that there are appreciable
differences between the sharpness of various formats:. 8 mm,
Hi-8, VHS, S-VHS?
