If you go 3/4 or beta, get ready for sticker shock when you buy tape.
S-VHS is not that bad if you are careful and use high-end equipment for
aquisition and editing. Fox network uses it for all their ENG and by the
time it ends up at your house, you can't tell the difference between it
and beta shot stuff. It is probably easier, however to see a difference
on graphics and things that are more color laden. But, if you can afford
it go with the best – heck get D1!! ;^} Actually, another consideration
is your customer base. If all your local markets are 3/4, going beta
might not give a decent payback by the time you sort out/pay for format
conversions. So although quality is a big factor it is not the only one
to consider.
