The main problem with analogue is the conversion time, it has a moderate learning curve to do good conversions, and takes hours to encode video even on fast computers. If you plan on shooting alot of video its a worthwhile investment to get a digital camcorder, which can output the video directly to a digital format. |
Thanks a lot Dendrin. I know now why photo encoders charge me so much just to convert a short analog video to digital. I thought I'd do it myself. Maybe I should buy another video camera, a digital one.
