HDV is a format for recording of high-definition video on DV videocassette tape.[1] The format was originally developed by JVC and supported by Sony, Canon, and Sharp.[2] The four companies formed the HDV Consortium in September 2003.
Conceived as an affordable high definition format for digital camcorders, HDV quickly caught on with many amateur and professional videographers due to its low cost, portability, and image quality acceptable for many professional productions.
