thank for the input Toby. i'm not sure of the betacam models but they're
Sony's with 330 lines of resolution and about 12 years old.
the two cam's we've been considering are the panasonic dvx100a and the
panasonic dvc60 both of which say 410,000 pixels 4:3 and 500 lines of
resolution. thus, shouldn't the picture be better than the betacams? or am
i missing something? like a major ingredant in the comparison?
