Screening formats guide
DV
- The DV (Digital Video, variants: DVCAM, miniDV) is the standard that has made ​​ digital video available. It is now a little older, but still better than the DVD.
- For a better screening quality it is best to use a DV recorder rather than a camera. The recorder is more robust and well wired.
