I know, I have done a search but you guys lose me with the techno bable =). I bought the camera from pricejapan, and it was shpped today. This is strictly just a camcorder to film whatever =), vacations, hangin out and anything along the way. I am a total rookie, have no previous camcorder experience to talk about.

Which tapes are the best? I wold like to pic some up before my camera gets here.

Thanks and sorry for the lame question.

Which tapes are the best?I don't know for sure, but from what I've read, and from pros I know, and from my own experience, I would have to say Fuji. But like I said, I don't know for sure.

Thanks =), so I am looking for just a regular fujitsu mini dv tapes correct?

Thanks Frank!

It's just called Fuji miniDV tape. I believe they only make 1 type, but I've heard that in Japan you have a choice of a couple of colors with the cases. http://www.dvfreak.com/tape.htm

Awesome Will gettem =), thanks.

I all ready bought nine Fuji tapes. I don't know anything about tapes but Frank seems like a good guy so I took his advice. When I get my professional camcorder I hope I will be able to understand how it works without too much trouble.
