Mark,
Thanks for the info. I appreciate your time.
Bob,
Yes we are a very small studio and, like I said before, none of us really have any experience in this aspect of post. I didn’t realize all the formats I mentioned required a different VTR. That was part of my question.
Up until now, we’ve been sending our video to a post house. We already have all the equipment to do downconverts/upconverts and captioning. It was sort of “inherited” so I don’t really know how to use it, but we also wanted to bring the Digibeta tapes in-house.
We also have a dealer we could talk to but I thought I’d get the opinions of people who have worked with the different machines first.
So if we want to go with a Digibeta deck, what should we look at? Sony? Panasonic?
Thanks again everyone.
