    Does anyone know the cameras/production format of the majority of reality shows? I’m not referring to the studio shows, but those shot on location. I’m seeing some great looking HD video on Bravo, Food Network and want to looking into some new production gear for shows I’m pitching.

    Pink Sneakers Productions (My Big Redneck Wedding, Brook Knows Best, etc, etc, etc,) uses HDV cameras from Sony. They also own more expensive HPX-900 cameras (tape, not P2). It is common for them to work at HDV resolution.

    Cool. They are generating some great video that holds up through transmission. Thanks.
