Getting used to HV 40
Mixing footage for project. Have footage that is True 1920 X 1080. My other footage is off HV40. It captures at 1440 X 1080. What is best way to handle hv40 footage in a project like this. This is documentary that I will be looking for DVD/Cable deal.

Saves at 1440 x 1080i and shows at 1920 x 1080 (Anamorphic) It records at 1920 x 1080p. Have been using the HV20 same set up as HV20/30/40 , no problem for 3.5 years use editing in Premiere Pro .It is capable of playback recordings from high end pro camcorders Canon XL H1, XH G1 and XhA 1.

Note :
The HDV format uses MPEG2 compression at a bit rate of up to 25 Mbps and records 1920 x 1080 interlaced video. This compares to AVCHD’s 1440 x 1080i using MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression at a maximum 18 Mbps. Spec-wise, HDV has a clear lead and in real-world recording, you can definitely see the difference but I must stress AVCHD is far better than traditional standard-def video. The main issue I have with HDV is the fact it’s a tape-based system in a hard-drive, flash-memory world. With that on the table, let’s see how it holds up…

Probably worth a look. I believe it records at 1920x1080P and as I said saves at 1440 x1080i on a Sony Bravia 46′ HD TV depending on the quality of subject and skill of the operator it is equal to and at times better than broadcast TV ?
