16:9 HDV Vs. 4:3 mini-DV: Which one for Porn -

Is HDV 16:9 (letterbox window) really good for filming a xxx video, or is a regular old style 4:3 aspect ratio mini-DV better ?
I believe regular minid-DV (4:3) was better because of the HEIGHT of the frame, into which you can get more a girl's body up close. Specially, for filming strip-tease 4:3 is much better. It fills the screen also.
16:9 HDV (High Def video) cameras are overtaking porn. They film at 60 frame/sec as well as 30 frame/sec, and 24 P.
The HDV file size is over 12 gigabyte for 1 hour of video. You have to compress it to DVD size anyway (4.7 gigabyte).
Let me know your thoughts if you like working with HDV, etc.

What a strange question. And with an even stranger outline. As far as I know, almost everything produced in the world of pornography today is somehow "HD", though that does not really give any indication regarding how good it might look; it is just above the television resolution NTSC or PAL has.
Assuming you do not only want to shoot material, but sell it as well, going for the highest possible quality you can afford would be my suggestion. It probably does not hurt to buy, rent or - well - download video material for comparison of, say, Digital Playground and Vouyer Media with Anabolic and Zero Tolerance productions. The former look really good, while the latter mostly lack fine details; due to cameras, lighting and post-processing - though of the companies mentioned only Digital Playground seem to utilize the last aspect to any extent.
By the way, an anamorphic widescreen DVD "fills the screen" of widescreen television sets quite nicely; almost all productions still look framed all right when zoomed in to fit on a 4:3 set.
Depending on where you are based, companies renting cameras and equipment might be able to help you to find an affordable solution.
Good performers in a solidly-crafted production could be an advantage in what seems to be a very competitive industry.

I doubt there are any 16:9 television sets out today lacking the ability to zoom in 4:3 material.
thus fucking up the aspect ratio? Thanks no thanks.

[ Most manufacturers provide several modes of zooming, the performers do not have to look like "little people" on a 16:9 TV or "bony people" on a 4:3 TV, if that is what you meant.
If you want to see 4:3 filmed stuff in a 16:9 tv you can either
-keep the vertical black bars on the sides
OR
-proportionally zoom in the image, keep the aspect ratio but loose QUITE some pixels on top and bottom (possibly cutting heads and feet)
OR
-stretch the image horizontally to fit it into the 16:9 wideness and watch a distorted image of fatter whores.
There's no other way. So, considering the market moved/is moving into 16:9 hardware, i'd say it's better filming the stuff in 16:9 format too.
