Was that an HD camera?
« on: March 18, 2008, 03:13:52 AM »
Right now, they're showing a report with Dr. Forbes in the back of the Abrams & Bettes/Weekend View studio, and the camera right behind him appears to have an HD logo on it. Interesting that such a camera would be in the old building.

There are 2 HD cameras, I think maybe 3 but I know for sure 2 HD cameras in the current SD Camera Chain.

Not to run this off a tangent or anything, but Price is Right was shot with HD cameras for ~3 seasons without being in HD.  I'd assume the cameras were bought to replace old ones, and they just bought HD ones so they wouldn't have to replace them when the transition occurred.

Yep, same deal. :)
