There is a great article over at Studio Monthly entitled, “Hands-On HD: Getting the Most Out of High Def.” It features first person advice from over one dozen HDV experts. Here’s an excerpt:
However much you know - or think you know - about HD production, there’s always more to be learned.

And no matter how much experience you have in the realm of high-end post-production, tricky new formats like HDV have thrown a monkey wrench in the works. That’s why we’ve asked production and post-production pros with real-world hands-on experience shooting and finishing HD formats, to share some of their hard-earned advice on dealing with HD footage and equipment.
