I alternate between tape and memory card usage. If I'm doing a series of long interviews, I prefer tape as it's more economical and doesn't have to be loaded at the end of each day of shooting. On its own, this tape is probably no better than a standard Sony DV tape, but the body and rails are more durable (or so I tell myself). You pay money, you make your choice.
