Response to DV Cam vs. Mini DV

from Chris Reddick (chris@rocketfactory.com)
We have equipment that covers both the miniDV format and DV cam. Rachel was close, but the only difference betweem DVCAM and miniDV is the tape speed. not the data rate. data rates are the same, its practically the same format DVCAM is more rugged with higher tape speed in the larger case. same record time, just more tape used. Both are a 25 mbit / second format. Most DVCAM deck will playback miniDV but always record in DVCAM. DVCAM does not play back in miniDV equipment.
