This is an extremely interesting conversation. 720? Really? I had no
idea this was still alive as a standard for broadcast. Ever since bluray
won the war, 720 went to consumers, so I thought. Our office has never
once delivered 720, it has been 1080 for years. All of our clients shoot
at 4k, 2k or 1080, then want 1080 23.976 / 24 / 25 delivered, and these
are for commercials, music videos and PSA. All of which go to broadcast
then usually to web. Our 1080 projects can usually be fully self
contained within a 2tb CalDigit easily. Rarely have we had enough assets
to fill a 4tb raid for a single project. Granted the end runtime isn't
sitcom or film length.
I agree with David. 720P? Really?
As a "consumer" I scoff at 720P. The only device manufacturer who seems to think 720P is "good enough" is Apple. Our local FOX affiliate still broadcasts their news in *SD*, and I have to laugh, but in a sad way.
Just say no to 720P.
