A few years ago I recieved a Panasonic PV-GS150 camcorder as a gift but never really used it much. In fact all the original stickers are still on the camcorder.I was in Best Buy and noticed they had a 5 pack of Sony 60 minute DV tapes for $31.99, when I asked why they were so much more expensive than I had remembered, the sales associate told me DV was being phased out.

This may or may not be the case, if it was I would tend to think the price would drop rather than rise as is the case for most any product that's being sent out to pasture. Thinking I might get a better deal on Amazon (99% of the time I do and I average about 20 purchases a month)

So that said I was shocked to find the Panasonic 5 pack of DV tapes for a mere $10.38!I didn't hesitate a moment, click - add to cart.The tapes are the real McCoy and the savings is incredible.I also found a head Cleaning tape for $8.00 (every place else is at least twice that) Click add to cart. Plus I found an extended battery which I priced everywhere I could think of online and found they ran about $60 - on Amazon $15.99. Click add to cart.

I added everything to my cart and all products combined costing less than a single 5 pack of tapes at a Big Box Electronic store.
Everything arrived well packaged and with lightening fast speed.

When it comes to deep discounts, from luxury items to the most basic household products - Amazon offers pricing that's usually impossible to beat.And as a Prime member the two day shipping is free on items that qualify - and that's an enormous selection.
I have no idea how they manage it - I'm just sure glad they do.

Panasonic, JVC and Sony are the brands I go to for all things video.

I do many of video tapes in a year and until I ordered these tapes, which I did within the past six months, I had good results with them. I have an important video shoot coming up later this month and I will be using a two camera technique. I expect to get equally excellent results for Camera A and Camera B. I edit the tapes myself and in this case I switch between cameras to make a final scene. I can trust these tapes to do the job, which is something I could not say to the previous ones I purchased. Well done, Panasonic.

About the only place to get Mini-DV tapes anymore is online -- even electronics stores have stopped carrying them. So I'm glad there's Amazon. I have over 100 tapes, and one brand's about the same as another. The only reason I started buying Panasonics is because they're the same make as my camcorder. They fit fine, they work fine. As with any Mini-DV camcorder, an essential purchase is a head cleaner tape and use it regularly, or you will eventually run into problems with garbled images and sound, with any brand of tape.

I remember when I first bought a MiniDV camcorder way back in 2001, the MiniDV tapes were pretty expensive(over six bucks a tape).

This is a great deal at just under ten bucks for a pack of 5 tapes. Panasonic makes good quality MiniDV tapes(I have some going over ten years and picture quality is still fine).

These tapes can be used either in SP(60mins) or LP(90mins) mode. Overall good quality and great deal for this pack.

The forums say stay with one brand and quality of tape, for the health of the camcorder heads. So I continue to buy these, here and elsewhere when I see a tempting sale price. I do not find these tapes great, as something clearly lacking in the quality - I have seen better. Yet these Panasonic DVC tapes provide reasonably good color for the price. I question their stability as when I reuse them on the second go round, I do notice dropouts and catches and drags. I have high def camera and monitor, so maybe I notice more than someone else. Price on Amazon, good when on sale - yet watch expiry date, source (yes low quality versions or fakes exist), and avoid buying from extreme temperature locations (tape sensitivity). Would not recommend using these for once in a lifetime memories (go better) such as world cruise, graduation, birthing, rare orchids, diva performances, etc. For daily and unimportant shooting of the swimming hole, job, traffic, your house and yard, new car, etc., these do fine.

For the price I paid ($25 for 10 tapes), this is definitely one of the best priced high-quality mini-DV tape on the market. I have used 3 tapes so far and everything seems to be fine (picture quality looks the same as others - I have a Sony HDR-HC3). I think the premium tapes are not worth it if you are going to import video on to a computer HDD. There may be a few drop bits here and there (according to manufacturer's claim anyway), but I don't think (most) people will notice them in the edited video.

Reviewed in Canada on December 11, 2013
These Panasonic miniDV tapes work perfectly for shooting in high definition. I use them in my Canon HV20 without a problem. Very clear picture and the tapes pick up the audio perfectly as well. I'm glad I can still find miniDV tapes online for such a great price (got mine for under $20 after the shipping). So if you're in need of miniDV tapes for either your standard def or high definition camcorder, then I strongly recommend these tapes made by Panasonic. You won't be disappointed.

I've used these for years and even still today along with many other people prefer miniDV to flash storage for professional videos. EXCELLENT for Panasonic and all other miniDV camcorders! Good for standard and high definition miniDV recording just make sure you don't mix dry and wet lubrication tape types and you are golden!
