#Sanyo GVR-S950
>> Can you tell me what would be the advantage or disadvantage of
using a hard drive unit over a VCR?
The reason I went with the 950 over the Personal Animation Recorder
(PAR) was my understanding that the PAR used JPEG compression and
that I might lose some quality in my playback. I still have not seen
a device that will play back full screen 24bit uncompressed frames at
30 frames a second. If one exists, I bet I can not afford it. Tape
is still the best media (Price/Performance) I could find.
The PAR looks like a great tool and I came very close to getting it
over the 950. Digital editing allows for a great deal of
flexability. I do digital editing of video on the PC for multi-media
applications and the digital format can not be beat in an editing
enviornment.
