Post Request for technical information re; airborne cameras please

I am looking for some technical information about airborne (primarily helicopter) camera systems.

Can anyone confirm for me please what the operational differnece will be between a day (visual) camera that provides clarity of 700 TV lines and a camera that provides 480 TV lines? Will the users (aircraft crew and ground staff viewing the datalink), notice a differnece?

I have been informed that 700TV lines is broadcast quality and that 480TV lines is acceptible for Law/military roles.

If anyone has some operational experience to relate that would also be very useful.

Thanks to all who can help.
