(ISO/IEC 13818-2 standard)
offers higher color resolution, it
4:1:1
minimizes jaggies at chroma
• DVCPRO (NTSC/PAL)
edges - and thus is suitable for
• DV (NTSC)
• DVCAM (NTSC)
image composition.
DVCPRO, DV (NTSC), and
DVCAM (NTSC) use a 4:1:1
sampling rate.
DVCAM (PAL) and DV (PAL) use
a 4:2:0 sampling rate.
Although these are the formats
that the color signal resolution is
half of what you get in 4:2:2
sampling their degradation of the
video quality after duplication
4:2:0
would be less, unlike HDV that
• DV (PAL)
• DVCAM (PAL)
also uses a different version of
4:2:0 sampling, because the
luminance line is correspondent to
the color difference line.
