sp or lp

[scotman]

does shooting in lp hurt the resolution of the footage recorded with a dvx?

 

[bigbossbmb]

no, but it makes dropouts much more likely.

..much much more likly. Don't use LP, the risk of loosing your footage is not worth it.

Only ever use SP.

after spending $3,000+ for a dvx, i recommend risking it and shooting in lp so you can save a few dollars on tapes.

And never switch modes on the same tape. >_<
I accidentally switched to LP once and it wiped the timecode on half of my tape.
