Blaq, S-VHS gives almost 2x the resolution of VHS. You can see the difference and it is significant enough that you can see the difference even without doing a "side by side" type comparison. If your composite source is outputting a high frequency signal with quality at the hihger end (like 5.5 Mhz or better) the recording in S-VHS will capture more detail. If you want to go "whole hog" Sony has an industrial/high-end consumer SVHS deck. JVC's BRS-805/605s are nice. Or, you can save up your dough and get a low end Beta-SP for about $7500 (UVW-1800). wmc – via Autopilot!
