Definition: Micro DV


Pocket-sized camcorders that use SD cards for storing video in the DV format. For example, the Muvi Pro Micro DV camcorder records 90 minutes of video in a clip-on unit that is slightly more than two inches long. Micro DV camcorders have also been called "MiniDV camcorders," however, MiniDV refers to the size of a tape cassette, and Micro DV is a better differentiation. See DV.
