In the issue of Digital Content Producer that I received yesterday there is a great article about newspaper newsroom convergence with many photographers producing multimedia slideshows and video. Of particular interest to me was Dallas Morning News Photographer David Leeson exclusively shooting high definition video and then pulling frames for the video for the newspaper. The newspaper is not just running small inside photos, but enlarging the frames to four or five column photos. Last June Photo District News addressed the topic of whether video frames grabs are fit to print and said that besides the Dallas Morning News, the San Jose Mercury News and the Detroit Free Press were also printing stills grabbed from high definition video.
