  <markup-description>Panasonic Mini DV / HDV, AY-DVM63AMQ Advanced Master Quality tape Designed for Mini DV and HDV Recording!Enhanced Durability for Still Images: This DVC tape, 63AMQ, has a newly developed robust
lubricant and a durable diamond-like carbon (DLC) film with extra
thickness to dramatically boost durability during still frame playback,
which places considerable burden on the tape. This rugged durability
stands up to the repeated rewinding, fast-forwarding and playback of
professional editing.High Output Level: Panasonic's advancements
to its S-AME (Super Advanced Metal Evaporation) technology have yielded
an improved magnetic density. Compared to other brands, the output
level has been increased by +1.2dB, resulting in a more precise and
secure recording.Superb Total Performance: This durable DVM63AMQ tape
offers particularly excellent characteristics in regards to dropout,
clogging, and still image playback, in comparison with previous
Panasonic tapes. It also excels over competitive brand tapes in terms
of dropout, signal output, and error rate.Low Head Wear: With
our original dry type lubricant, video head wear is much less compared
to other tape brands (-4m after 500H). Also, it prevents head clogs and
significantly extends head life.High-Precision Cassette Design:
The same ABS resin that gives data tape cassettes their superb
reliability, high-precision molding, tough impact resistance, and
durability is used in AMQ Series cassettes. An anti-static treatment
for the cassette lid repels dust contaminants and minimizes dropouts.
This advanced cassette gives valuable images the extended protection
they need.2-Way Opening Soft Case: A soft material that won't
break if dropped is used for the cassette case. The 2-way lid
construction lets you easily extract the tape with one hand, even while
shooting.


Want to Make a Movie?  Better Get Started with a MiniDV Camcorder
A MiniDV camcorder is one of the most popular methods of digital recording among young filmmakers and video journalists.  The great thing about a MiniDV camcorder is that you don&#213;t have to spend a lot of money or time to create a quality production.  What are some of the best features of a MiniDV camcorder?
First, you have to consider the High Definition Format capability.  This is the wave of the future and gives you much better resolution.  This is how many of the top blockbuster flicks are shot and add a depth of professionalism to any project.  The image stabilization feature on most MiniDV cameras minimize the effects of a shaky cameraman&#213;s hands, while special night lighting can shine a little light into a dark production.  Mini DV cameras also use MPEG-2 compression.  What is the significance of this?  This is a more efficient technology because of the system&#213;s inter-frame/temporal compression.  This helps simplify the editing process, and is not as accessible on other types of recording systems, like ones that operate on DVD or flash memory-based.  DV cameras also offer higher resolution and with bit-rates similar to that of regular digital video. 
Indeed, the most popular aspect about the MiniDV player is its editing capabilities, which are compatible with various other mediums, including VCRs and personal computers.  However, you can&#213;t underestimate the portability of a Mini DV player.  Not only is the system small, but the tapes (known as &#210;S&#211; cassettes) are also are small and inexpensive, selling for $3 or less for 60-90 minutes.  High-density tapes (made possible using a special type of thin tape) can record up to two hours. 
A Mini DV system (the choice of several cable shows and many amateur video journalists that eventually make their way to professional broadcasters) can differentiate your creative skills from the silly video pranks of amateurs by its technical sophistication.</markup-description>
