Take it a company that does tape transfers. There are plenty in London, I haven't seen price lists for quite a while but on past experience I'd guess ...
The main advantage I can see is you take the DVD out and put it in your DVD player... no need to faff around with plugging a camcorder in. Handy if...
Recording format is far less important than what you record: a good mike plugged into a Minidisk or a DV/HDV camera with a sound recordist who knows ...
75 is kind of doable for a feature, don't think you can get away with anything much lower than that (though I do seem to remember one released featur...

"Then you will have a film feel for a DV price!" Sorry, but 24 frame per second shooting is about the least important part of a 'film look'. If you...
I don't know how it compares to the competition, but Final Draft is pretty good. In fact, FD6 is so good I can't see any real reason to upgrade to lat...
