High Definition Video

High Definition Video (HDV) is a video format which is intended to provide the facility to record high-definition (as opposed to standard definition) MPEG-2 video on standard DV media (DV or MiniDV cassette tape).
The HDV format was defined by four companies: Canon Inc., Sharp Corporation, Sony Corporation, and Victor Company of Japan, Limited (JVC). These companies originally announced their HDV partnership in September,
2003. They have been joined by other companies such as Apple Computer.
In
January 2005, Apple announced versions of iMovie and Final Cut Express that can import and edit HDV. Because HDV is a consumer version of high definition it is not supported by their high-end product, Final Cut Pro, without a plug-in called Lumière HD, Lumière contains full support for HDV for Final Cut Pro.
Some other popular video editing software packages, like
Adobe Premiere Pro, now include limited support for editing HDV.
