Excellent tapes

May 17, 2002 - By Amazon Customer

These tapes shoot at pretty good quality and they can be used in both high8 as well as digital8 camcorders. You can't get a better camcorder tape from sony than this at this price.

Remarkable quality - a must have!

Oct 21, 2004 - By Kino Kahona (Los Angeles, California)

I have used other Hi8 tapes but from my expreience nothing beats the quality of a Sony. I am an active member of a muscial band and we perform about every week. I set my camera (Sony TRV340) on a tripod and let it record on all our venues. As a result I consume quite a number of tapes per month. Because of this I need a reliable, high-quality brand that I can trust; the Sony Hi8. Video quality is superior, even after several re-recordings (taping over footage). The same goes for the sound; crisp and clear (especially when you have an auxilary mic). I found the outer tape housing surprisingly strong. At one time I dropped a box of these tapes from a high shelf and on to a hard-tile floor - but they remained intact and safe. These tapes are pretty much versitle in any kind of filming situation, and for that I give Sony praise.

Highlights:
- Sharp, High quality video
- Crisp and clear sound reproduction
- Strong plastic tape housing
- Unbeatable value


I highly recommend this product for all your recording needs! Now if you excuse me, I think I have another gig to film.

Shipping Message is a Joke! Ordered 8 days back!

Jan 16, 2005 - By Srinivas Vandanapu

It seems Amazon.com service is getting poorer day by day. The product page displays it will ship in 1-2 days. I've placed order for this item more than 8 days back. I got email today from Amazon saying it will take another 20 days. This site is becoming CHEAP and UNRELIABLE site. To top all this you cannot talk to anybody. You can send only email. Usually I've seen retailers throwing some goodies when they make mistake. Amazon guys simply send you one email saying they are cancelling your order.
