The camcorders I have worked with have a DV out which can export either
way. Some people prefer to do the downconvert in their NLE but I
haven't made a comparison. I have chosen to shoot some stuff in HDV
for which I don't need to HD now but can easily output in DV and
if/when the need for HD arises, the footage is already there.
