Better Quality

[Darby Edelen]

[cyprusx] “What has better quality an old video tape camera or a still Digital camera with 5 min recording time.”

It sounds like you’re talking about a still digital camera being used for video? In that case I have to ask you:

Which hurts less, a fall off a 300 foot cliff or a fall off a 30 story building?

so there both bad but which is better

[Darby Edelen]

That depends, is your old video camera Hi-8? VHS? SVHS?

What is the advertised resolution/frame rate of your still camera for video?

the tape is a Hi 8 and the digital is a Kodak dx6490 4m

[cyprusx] “the tape is a Hi 8 and the digital is a Kodak dx6490 4m”

I think you want to go with the Hi-8, has better resolution and the capability to capture at 30fps.
