At Video Utah, we use only high end,
digital production equipment.

It seems like everyone these days is using DV Cam or Mini-DV cameras as an acceptable alternative for broadcast... not at Video Utah.  
Despite what you may hear about new formats and prosumer grade "broadcast quality" cameras, there is a real difference compared to our professional grade, digital broadcast packages.

Video Utah Productions utilizes broadcast industry professionals, with real equipment and gear designed specifically for the broadcast industry. Compare this to an XL1 mini-dv camera for example. which runs $2,000 at your local camera store.  This is what most production houses are using.  Don't be fooled!

Because we have virtually no overhead, we can bring you our extensive collection of cameras and equipment, and offer you comparable pricing with what you would pay for inferior gear.
