Mitsubishi HS-HD2000U settings anyone?
 

I have used some of these setting during playback of tapes, Just wondering how much Trouble/Benefits these setting might cause, especially the "Normal/Soft/Sharp" settings, In my use so far, the "Sharp" only seems to highlight the rough edges around mountains with sky background, filmed with a 1990's consumer grade Cam...Anyone used one of these Units?

Don't sharpen analog tape during capture. You're sharpening noise. Use "Normal". Sharpen in post-processing with software, after denoising.

And what do you think that tells you about sharpening noisy input during capture?

3D-Y/C doesn't function during playback.

DNR&TBC, well you pretty much need to enable it unless you have another line TBC. I was sadly surprised to find that turning it off doesn't actually disable the DNR; it just lowers the level.

As stated, set Play PerfecTape (aka sharpness) to Normal.

The other PerfecTape function is just for recording, according to the manual.

Here's those pages from user manual, forgot to re-size pics/make viewable in original post!..and I failed to mention I was mostly asking about the Soft/Normal/Sharp playback settings,..AND thanks for the replies about Sharp setting! Attachment 4360

The forum automagically resizes image. ;)

LOL!, I was wondering about that, all that time I spent re-sizing..Oh Well..Again LOL!:)

..so does that mean I can save a little time and upload a high-res pic w/o re-sizing first?

Sharp is not pretty. Too much noise, and a detailer (SignVideo DR-1000) is much better.
Soft is only good for noisy cartoon tapes.
Normal is where it should be left 99%+ of the time.

The max upload for JPEG is 2mb. Downsizing is still preferred, as the server's resize algorithm is not as good as Photoshop/etc. All you do is make the server work harder.
