SonyHi8 Camcorder 8mm Cassettes 120 Minute (4-Pack) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Like most of my experience with Sony products, these are high quality tapes. I feel fortunate to have bought them in case they are no longer available due to the manufacturer discontinuing production. Not sure if Amazon has inventory.

Great deal on tapes

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

Worked perfectly as if I bought them brand new at a national retailer. I need more and I hope they don't run out before I make the purchase. The price I paid I thought was a good buy even though I wished I paid less for my order, but these video cartridges are not manufactured anymore.I use these for a Sony analog nite shot video camera I use for paranormal investigations. It's either buy these cartridges or pay $1,300.00 for a new and digital infra-red night recording camcorder. Hopefully I will discover a portable DVD recorder of sorts to record onto versus these cartridges.I will definitely buy again. Very, very quick shipping.

I did an analog copy using this for property for insurance as well as a digital. Picture quality is fantastic and could be a lifesaver in a situation where I lose the digital. Get a lock box at the bank to store in! Way easier to make a loss claim if needed.

Got a package of these for our coming trip - yes, we still like and use the old digital tape camcorder ... but these tapes are becoming increasingly rare and are no longer found in the stores that we shop-in. The price was good, and since we use about 1 tape per week on trips, I bought 2 packages for our coming vacation ... wanting to get them while they were still in stock. We almost ran out of tapes on our last trip (Antarctica, Carnival - Rio, Machu Picchu and Galapagos); having used so many in Antarctica, could find none in Rio, and sweated it out until we were able to locate a few in a small camera store in Cusco. A word to the wise ... if you still use a camera which requires these tapes, get as many as you think you will need and then buy a few extra ... just in case. A Hint: before you leave home, record and view a few seconds of footage to make sure the tape is working well and has no defects/drop outs. We learned this lesson the hard way on a trip to China a few years ago. Taught us a good lesson.

I like it because it’s durability and pictures quality.

Very pleased with the tapes. Appear to be good quality and have been stored well. Wish "progress" hadn't evolved to making things obsolete before their time so we have to keep buying new stuff. Just because something can be done doesn't mean it should be. As a result, I have cassettes, albums, reeltoreels, Hi8S, VHS, CDs, DVDs. Thanks to the greedy who add no value to the world or society with their so-called advancements.
