Might not have been obvious but this is for a personal endeavour rather than a work-related project. Myself and a few others are putting together our first feature-length movie with a view to getting it into a theatrical release for cinema clubs and similar then DVD. We had a word of caution that if it turned out to be something half-decent then we'd best have it in HD to grease the wheels with any other possible airings beyond our initial ambition. I agree that SD would be more than enough for the vast majority but sadly these gold-plated speaker cable enthusiasts out there... ;) Sadly we’ve been advised that HD is the min we can get away with.

Have you viewed SD on your TV screen to see if you're getting good enough for the next 10 years? Do you really need things in HD?

Mind you, with this HD footage I'm beginning to think that a TB won't even be enough. A scary prospect! I may have to dedicate a machine to only good takes and archive the rest onto other storage drives. I'm so close to buying a film camera and a guillotine to solve the storage crisis. ;) :) If only there was such a mechanism!

You'll feel so much better doing this. I suggest you drive to Newry, buy a TB in portable storage, then charge the petrol and the hard drive back as an expense.
