<<Basically, the 3/4 Umatic will be the strongest for dubbing work but the SVHS is better on first generation. >> How do you mean? The SVHS looks better on first gen than the Umatic, but wears out quicker? <<Hi8 is , in my opinion, only good for camera acquisition. >> What is camera acqisition? And please tell me about the Umatic. What does it go for? I have heard most of the bigger animation houses are doing it SP – is this true? <<I also would shy away from the old 3/4 umatics because if they are used decks they are most likely beat. >> I hear you there. It sounded good for a couple minutes but then I started thinking… At the moment, what I'm doing is compiling a demo tape to show future clients and prospective development partners. I want it to look good. And if we're going to buy a deck, I'm kinda moving towards one of the better ones, simple because there's a good chance we may be able to purchase some SGI gear, so… Thanks for your help! James
