I wish I could afford HD...

I googled a price on it a while ago (or emailed) on it, not cheap, I think that it was over a thousand or thousands.

That's still way cheaper than a deck that can't capture 4:2:2, and even more so than a Mac or Wafian. More portable too!

One of the guys here is doing a commercial HDSDI uncompressed recorded for around $2.5K (Likely to be expanded to to other formats). There is stuff coming that has pretty good compression before end of the year, but I am under confidentiality. But you might the one from Earthsoft, it is similar in capability as DVCPROHD, it is cheaper, but I don't know if the codec is truly compatible with work flow.

It's not an issue you will likely see discussed on any type of TV news program.

A matter of coincidence, this is similar to what you are talking about, it is about:
