Are these the same as minidv tapes, or are they slightly different?

MiniDV tapes are made for data storage and for use in Panasonic or other brands of MiniDV camcorders. Maxwell 6-120 tapes are for use in Video 8 camcorders. Check the Instruction booklet with your camcorder or storage unit to see if it uses MiniDV tapes. If it is a Video 8 camcorder such as Sony makes, Maxwell 8 mm tapes are used.

No these are made to fit only Video 8 and to my knowledge that is all. I use them in my sony camcorder and they work great

They are not the real mini, they are larger than the 2x3 . I had to reorder the real mini ones. 8mm are the larger ones.

There's no difference that I know of. I just got these so that I would have extra batteries for the gopro (so I could carry the other two as spares when my go pro battery ran out). They work just as well from what I can tell.

Depends on how old the tapes are. Mine from about 1992 to 2003 work fine. I did purchase a more recent tape that did not. The older ones are no longer manufactured. I did find an outlet through Amazon that claims they have tapes that will work. I'm waiting for the shipment.

I believe they would - my tapes worked fine. However, I did learn all 8 mm recorders are not the same. Sony has a web site that can tell you which recorders are compatible. I checked the Sony site then looked for a recorder that was compatible. After you get a list of which recorders will work you can look for one on Amazon. I recorder my 8 mm tapes to DVD and it all worked fine. Hope this helps

If you can hook up your camcorder directly to the DVD Recorder, you should be able to convert your mini dv tapes. You need RCA output from your source to RCA input onto the DVD recorder.

No, these are the "normal" DVDs. Single sided 4.7GB, of course not rewriteable either. And they are not the mini's for the Sony cameras. These are the DVDs used in DVD players, standalone or computer types.

No !! they take mini Dv tapes who are very outdated and were always expensive. I have a ton of footage of my familyusing mini dv tapes. I need to tranfer them to a regular dvd so they can last longer. Im not sure how long those mini dv tapes will last.

Yes it takes standard play minidv tapes and allows for an sd card to save photos and camera settings.

Hmm...difficult to answer that one but DVD's I recorded on from Verbatim, 5 years ago still run fine. If you keep them in a case, no reason they won't last a very long time.

These miniature audio CD's. They only hold abut 350megs of data. If you have a video camera you need to burn them on DVD+R or DVD-R to be compatible in today's DVD players. If your video file is .mp4, .flv or something like that that is less than 350megs you will be OK. If you try to copy a movie such as the kind you see in video store they are too small. These CD's are about 3" wide, very small compared to the regular CD.Hope this helps.

If you are going to use the tapes over and over again say for music and/ or other recording, the 120 minute cassette tape does not, in my experience hold up. The 60's and 45's do a better job of that. For a one or two time recording, I am satisfied with the quality and function.

No they are not - but they seem to be the same that I have used for years, just smaller.

not sure what you mean by a Mini DV video cassette...the "mini video cassette that I have been using with it is the one that is3/4" thic with dimensions of 2 1/4 by 3 1/2....thicker than the Hi 8 whhich DOES NOT work with it. Feel free to ask any other questions....works great with the thicker cassettes.

Cindy G these are the Regular size cassette tapes approximately 2 1/2" inch wide X 4" inch long. Not micro size.These fit like a desktop portable recorder from Radio Shack or those older Boom Box's or Stereo Cassette Decks.

I have used almost all types of Mini-DV tape in several different cameras and could not tell any difference.

I do not believe so. This product is made for VHS-C tape which is a little thicker. The Mini DV tape looks thinner so highly suspect this is not what you want. Google VHS-C and you will see the sizes are different.

Your videos will go on the mini dv tape only. Memory card is for pictures only.
