The best quality HDTV and CCD Video Camera

Advances in digital recording have ensured video cameras (particularly the GoPro HERO4 series) continues to keep in step with current technology trends. Choosing the right options for your video camera’s an essential way to invest wisely. Before purchasing a new video camera its worth making notes about what features it has to help you get the very best filming quality possible. Gaining knowledge about the different aspects of video cameras will ensure your video camera investment lasts many years.

• HDTV and 3 CCD

Two big considerations when purchasing a new video camera include the ability to shot in HDTV format along with the application of 3 CCD technologies. 3 CCD refers to the cameras imaging device picking up three colours (red blue and green) through three separate Colour Charged Devices. This gives a huge increase in image quality and resolution. A 3 CCD device is preferable than a single CCD video camera.

HDTV refers to High Definition Television and features massive boosts in resolution quality over standard TV SDTV or SD formats. Both these two options (HDTV and 3 CCD) remain the perfect choice for a top quality video camera.

• Look for high optical focus

A video camera with an optical focus allows your camera to zoom into a scene giving fantastic resolution without pixilation or “noise” appearing. Digital focus only enlarges an area without actually zooming in resulting in poorer resolutions as well as more pixilation.

• Lower illumination levels

Low numbers here remains the best option. Look for an illumination rating between 2 to 7 lux. This refers to how well your video camera can produce images in low light conditions. The lower the rating the more details can be picked up in low light situations.

• Lens types

The ultimate choice will become influenced by what your videocamera will ultimately be used for. If you’re taking a standard filming experience as a normal daily use then a 10x zoom or higher will remain the most suitable. If you’re looking at creating movies with your video camera then it’s a wiser option to choose a video camera with interchangeable lenses. This allows for greater diversity of capturing footage. Large lens choice allows you camera to adapt to differing shooting requirements.

• Memory storage

Ensure you check how much memory storage your video camera uses. Look at how expensive the upgrades will cost if you want to opt for greater memory. Understand how the various formats can be used on PCs or the Macintosh. Check with the supplier how much actual footage you can capture on the video camera with the memory that’s already supplied.
