Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony High Definition Minidv Videocassette (2-Pack)
Customer Review: Excellent quality (no drop-outs or fades), but a little pricey
Summary: 4 Stars
Since buying our Canon VIXIA HV30 MiniDV High Definition Camcorder with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom for last year's fall vacation, I've begun purchasing these Sony HD tapes. As for the quality of the tapes, I've experienced no fade-outs or dropped frames, even after recording maybe close to 20 hours on 20 different tapes. The product itself seems to be very high quality. Colors and resolution are *awesome*. When I did a side-by-side comparison of a kitchen scene using my old MiniDV and standard definition MiniDV tapes compared with the HD MiniDV alternative, I was *blown away* at how much better-looking the HD solution is. The colors are much more vibrant, and of course the resolution is spectacular. I know you can use regular MiniDV tapes if you want with this HD camera, but Canon suggests using HD-specific tape medium, and I figure that I'm recording memories that will last my lifetime, so why be chintzy?
I really like that the coloring of the tapes is very distinct from all my regular, standard resolution MiniDV tapes that I've recorded over many years. These WHITE-colored tapes make it a cinch to distinguish between HD tapes and regular tapes. I can instantly spot where my in my library I began recording in high definition.
The only reason this product isn't a 5-star product is because I think they're a little too expensive. If they were just a dollar or two more over the price of regular MiniDV tapes, then this would be a 5-star product.
(BTW, the Canon camera I'm using isn't the latest version. If you're in the market for a new HD MiniDV camera, check-out Canon's current product, Canon VIXIA HV40 HD HDV Camcorder with 10x Optical Zoom. I love my Canon camera and would highly recommend it!)
