Re: Best tape for svhs.

Haven't A/B'ed any SVHS tapes for years, I for years have used the Maxell SVHS tapes. I now have a JVC deck that can record in SVHS mode on standard tapes. It works pretty well, but not as good as a true SVHS tape. BTW, you can do the same with any SVHS deck if you drill the tiny SVHS-identifying hole in the bottom of a standard, high-grade VHS tape. Compare the underside of a standard cassette to a SVHS counterpart and you'll see it.

I can't agree with John, at least as far as NTSC goes. SVHS justs blows standard VHS out of the water; the bigger the image, the more pronounced the difference, IME...

Regards,
Kevin
