Older Films Converted to HD....

    Just something I was curious about. At the time when a lot of these movies were made was the camera equipment actually very good and took very nice and crisp images when recording but when transferd for video and tv broadcast and the likes it suffered slight "loss" for want of a better word? Where as these days the likes of HD allows the original image to come across better?

    Also along the same train of though, I was watching "The Searchers" on TCM's standard channel the other day and it looked so crisp compared to when I saw it years back on analouge. Would the fact it's now broadcast in digital form increase the quality too from what analouge was able to transmit quality wise?

    Sorry if I have terms or stuff wrong it's something I've been trying to suss for ages cause to me even older movies look crisper on the standard non HD channels these days and I'm in no way educated in the old transmission and film quality departments :p
