Andrew. The HAM-E presents a mix of 18 bit and 24 bit pixels in it's
highest number of colors mode. Our renderer will generate images that are
visually, on an RGB monitor, darn close to, if not exactly the same as, a
full 24 bit system.
Once you go to composite, this will make NO difference. DCTV is not, never
was, and never will be a 24 bit output system, and _–> neither is anything
else when you go to composite!!!
The HAM-E can generate every bit as nice an image as DCTV can, and supports
numerous types of operations that DCTV cannot.
S-VHS is also not available from DCTV, as far as I know. Only composite.
You can go S-VHS with the HAM-E, for instance with the DigiFEX VIP encoder,
about $100 or so. And the HAM-E S-VHS output is _far_ better than the DCTV
composite output.
Just so you know.
