I don't know if this is any longer true, but it was highly recommended
that only one brand of tape be used, to avoid head-clog with brand
changes (lubricant incompatibilities?). I've had excellent service
from Sony mini-DV tape (virtually no drop-outs), but they are harder
to find and more expensive (I laid in a supply when I had the
chance...;-).

at the heels of Clinton, and maybe get a "do-something"
Congress in the bargain!)
