High quality film was very common commercially. It was home theater that was low definition. When they 'remaster' old films into HD, they're just taking the original high quality master and releasing it to the general public instead of the down scaled and letterboxed versions we saw at home back in the day.

@FIDEL_CASHFLOW_

@@natsfan100 partially true. It depends on how old of a film we are talking. If this was before I'd say the 1970s, a lot of those movies were stored on actual physical film and that was the only copy of available. The film was physically degraded so they had to usually, before computers, go frame by frame and do hand cleanups and sharpening filters.

Are you forgetting movies? This is just more baffling because it's on VHS

Consider one thing: Any professional 35mm film footage of that time, if well-preserved, would translate to HD and 2K and 4K resolution. People tend to think of the resolution of consumer end products (VHS, Laserdiscs, DVD's) as equivalent to the actual source media (16mm/35mm/70mm film, Broadcast master tapes, etc). HD video production was happening in Japan in the 1980's but HD as a consumer reality in America happened 20 years later.

To be fair, the reason why it took so long for HD video to become a common consumer item was because the early analog HD systems (like the Sony HDVS used here) were insanely expensive and was more a production rather than a consumer format. It was only by the mid 1990's when microprocessors became faster and cheaper along with the development of digital compression codecs that HD video became more practical for consumers.

I don't think it's the cell phones, but I definitely do think it is 9/11. Usually, cultures end in a gradual way. The 80's had a smooth gradient into the 90's, with the introduction of easier computing and access to greater color gamuts. However, the the 90's and the 2000s were a very immediate switch. From people I have asked, and things I have seen, a lot of people had a very immediate shift of feeling and mood once 9/11 happened. The economy also went to shit directly after due to the sudden loss of a large financial construct, and the practical death of the travel industry. Many people lost the feeling of strength, indestructibility, and safety that many used to have back then, as US citizens, and that effect still shows today, although things are definitely recovering as more generations pad the gap.

The camera head and the accompanying lens each cost a quarter million back in 1991/1992, or about a half million today each when adjusted for inflation in 2018. The recorder that shot this video had 20 MHz of luma bandwidth, which translates to 640 vertical lines of horizontal resolution. The two chroma channels had a bandwidth of 5 MHz or about 160 vertical lines of horizontal resolution for each channel. The signal format was 1125/60/2:1, which means there are 1125 total horizontal lines, of which only 1035 are active, for the spatial resolution, 60 Hz scanning frequency for the temporal resolution, and interlaced scanning mode is implied by "2:1." Here's the product information page, there is a dearth of information available about this even online: www.broadcaststore.com/store/model_detail.cfm?id=16388 Here's a rental store that offers the same camera on a daily basis, and probably still makes money today renting these things out: www.mm-technology.de/rental/hd01.html

>that level of quality from 25 years ago We've had that level of quality for longer than that. Movies shot on film are higher than HD resolution. What's amazing about this is that it's digital, so it doesn't have that grainy film look. Also, 35mm movie cameras were rarely used to shoot random street scenes due to their cost, so footage like this is uncommon.

It was shot on an old analog high-definition 3/4" format VCR called "UNI-HI" (with model no. HDV-10) introduced in 1984 and used videocassette tapes that could each hold up to 62 minutes of footage encoded as an analog component signal (Y/B-Y/-R-Y). It was based on the old U-Matic VCR format. The resolution was about 640 lines for the luma channel, and the resolution was about 320 lines equally split between the two separate chroma channels. The signal-to-noise ratio was 42 decibels, equating to a dynamic range of 7 stops, or a contrast ratio of roughly 128:1. In digital terms, that's the equivalent of 210 Mbps (not bad for a 1984 VCR).

Wow this is mesmerizing!! I was a kid in the 90's and my uncle lived in NYC and operated horse drawn carriages in Central Park. He would come back every few years to visit and tell me stories of about New York and I became completely fascinated by it and the United States in general. Unfortunately he died many years before I finally got to go in 2010. I moved there the following year and have been living there since. This is always the vision I had of NYC but of course it changed a lot by the time I moved there. I always wonder what it must have been like for my uncle when he lived there and how different things were then. Watching this video makes me just picture myself in this era of the city. I know this is often a topic of debate for some but it seemed a lot cooler back then than it is now. I mean hell, even when I first arrived it was cooler than it is now.
