Study Notes
Video Equipment Technology Levels
- There are three main levels of video equipment technology: Consumer, Broadcast, and Industrial/Prosumer.
- Commercial is not a level of video equipment technology.
Consumer-Grade Video Equipment
- Characterized by lower cost, potentially unwanted features, and fragility.
- May have limitations in audio capabilities and less durable connectors.
Industrial/Prosumer Video Equipment
- Offers a greater degree of manual control over settings, which is important for legal videographers.
- Bridges the gap between basic consumer models and high-end broadcast systems.
Types of Video Systems
- Fixed Studio, Mini-Studio, and Electronic Field Production (EFP) are types of video systems.
- Mobile Studio is not a type of video system described in Chapter 1.
Electronic Field Production (EFP)
- Primarily relies on lightweight, portable equipment that can be easily transported.
Portable Video Recorders
- Digital Camcorders are specifically designed to be portable and use battery power.
Video Monitors in Legal Videography
- Provide a real-time view of what the camera is capturing during the deposition.
- Allow the videographer to ensure proper framing, focus, and exposure.
Camera Selection for Depositions
- According to CLVS Standard #3, a camera's optical zoom lens with at least a 10:1 zoom ratio is particularly important.
