JVC 720p HDV will this minidv play on Sony v1u

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know if JVC 720p tapes will play on a Sony V1U, I would think they should play, but the client that has the tapes says it will only play on a JVC camera or deck...I'll post this on the JVC site too. Thanks GM

Only if you shoot in SD mini-DV. If you shoot in HDV, then it will not play back. You'll need a JVC deck for that.

edit - Sorry, I thought you were referring to a Sony HDV deck. But if the camera can record in 480 NTSC, it should be able to play back mini-DV SD. But it's a 1080 camera, it has no ability to record/play in 720.

Thanks Glen, I guess I'll have to find a Jvc deck or camera. GM
