    i have a HVX-200 and when i shoot MINI DV the reds and blues bleed in hight contras situations and low lighting. I Don’t know if this is because of subsampling or the HVX?

    Post some stills so we can see what’s happening. DV-NTSC is not exactly the widest chroma range you can have in this world.

    Yup that’s pretty normal. You’ll be hard pressed to find a camera in the prosumer world that won’t show antialiasing on high contrast,sharp edges and especially red. You might try adding a promist filter in front of the lens or turning down your edge detail a little. Also a chroma resampler such as Graeme Nattress’ G-Nicer can help a bit with the edges. Another good call is avoid high frequency patterns and bright red in your wardrobe choices.

    G-Nicer is a chroma upsampling plugin for FCP:
