Ive used the cheap pannys PQ?(by the crate bout $3.50 US) over the years.
When I got new cameras I went to Sony HD tapes (bout $10 us)Guess what? I had more dropouts in a week with the Sony tapes than I did with the Cheap tapes in 5 years. Better yet- now using cheap tapes in it, it works just fine. Go figure? Kinda like using a panny 1400 (guess what dvcpro hd worked fine on a 1200 with these tapes) deck and the old tapes AJ-P126L were 25 bucks and all of a sudden you have to use ELG/EMG tapes that cost allllllot more. Still using 126L tapes ....guess what....its all good |

Unfortunately for the time being my status is "for good" but I'm still trying to find a way to go back there one day even if it's "only" going to be my final resting place. Although I'm an Indonesian-born, Aussie-raised, Chinese-Canadian. I feel myself more of an Australian than anything else... which is ironic since the only country of those three that I don't have citizenship of is Australia. :( |

Haha, my wife's Indonesian Chinese with Australian citizenship. No plans to move to Canada though, but may eventually visit for a holiday one day.
Back on topic, the only tapes I've ever had problems with were Panasonic. The problems occurred using a Panasonic camera too.

[QUOTE=Steve Chikesh;684296]Exactly. So based on this theory, if I could get a Panny DVM63AMQ for $11, and a JVC M-DV63PRO-HD for $9 - which is the most cost effective?
Assuming that the JVC tapes don't give you any problems, then it would be them, wouldn't it? In your case. Me, I went for the Panny PQ's for $3.50 per hour... Work well. For me. |

back on topic. Tapes, or anything for that matter, seems to be like "meant to be or not" situation. Me, for example, have never had good luck using Samsung and Sigma products, but my friend had nothing but great luck using Samsung and Sigma products. So the moral of this post is that if you've found something that works for you, stick with it. |
