HDV is a format for recording of high-definition video on DV videocassette tape. Conceived as an affordable high definition format for digital camcorders, HDV quickly caught on with many amateur and professional videographers due to its low cost, portability, and image quality acceptable for many professional productions. The format was marketed mainly in the mid and late 2000s. HDV and the HDV logo are trademarks of JVC and Sony.
