Chummy:
Keylight is an extraordinary keying technology. In fact, it's used for very high end keying in VFX work all the time. But it works best when you feed it footage with adequate color sampling for keying. If not, it will pull a key perfectly... which for undersampled formats like DV or HDV could mean revealing ugly stair steps in the matte edges.

DV Matte Pro, from what I saw, is very good at pulling a key while disguising the flaws of the 4:2:0 color sampling grid in those formats. So if you're trying to key DV or HDV footage, it can be an excellent product.
