>Panasonic is always a good bet. You might look at Hi-8 format as well, as it
is a >little better than SVHS (holds up better over a few generations).
I use Hi-8 for my original camera footage, but dub to S-VHS for editing.
My target audience uses VHS/S-VHS so my tapes will end up there and
it's much more convenient to have that same format all throughout the
editing process (and I think I've found the machine I want, the Sanyo 950)
As much as I like Hi-8, I have so many dropouts even with one pass
through the camera that I'd be scared to death to use it for an editing
process where I'd run the tape several dozens of times. Anyway, I
usually only go down one additional generation (and the Sanyo will
probably eliminate that, with it's spare video and audio channels).
Thanks for the comments, though. While I've been active (well,
lurking) here many months ago, I came back just recently and seem
to notice that you're part of a group that publishes tips and tricks
for 3DS. Is that true? What do you have available? What prices?
Is this a good lead-in or what?
