I don't know anything about DV50. Is that a file type that I could
get something converted to? Or would I actually convert to DV50
tapes?

When you talk about Apple's ProRes would "make the task a breeze", are
you talking about the NTSC conversion as well, or just capturing into
DV50 files?

By the way, how steep a drop would the quality be from Digibeta to
DVD? I realize a lot, but reason I'm asking is there's an off chance
I may be able to get this transfer done at no cost -- (pulling in a
favor from someone overseas).
