You can still get Hi8 tapes.

Very happy with the straps. Appears to be of high quality and well maintained. I wish "progress" didn't develop to the point where things become obsolete prematurely and we have to keep buying new things. Just because something can be done doesn't mean it should be done. As a result I have cassettes, albums, shutters, Hi8S, VHS, CD, DVD. Thanks to the greedy who do not add value to the world or society with their so-called achievements.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Good price and availability

Good price for outdated technology and much easier to buy from Revain than trying to find a store that still has it on the shelf. On Christmas Eve I discovered that I didn't have blank tapes to record family events. I did eventually find a blank Christmas Eve cassette, but I'm glad I found the source for the Hi8 cassettes. Also, I'm not ready to give up my Sony DCR-TRV310 Digital 8 HandyCam and upgrade to the latest and greatest technology. Digital 8 still works and looks good.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Some issues

Good price for cassettes

I got a set of these tapes for an upcoming trip - yes we love and still use an old tape camcorder. but these tapes are becoming increasingly rare and are no longer sold in the stores we buy from. The price was good and since we use about 1 tape a week when we travel, I bought 2 packs for my upcoming vacation. wanted to get them while they were still available. On our last trip (Antarctica, Carnival - Rio, Machu Picchu and Galapagos) we almost ran out of tapes; After using so many in Antarctica,

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • So So

Outstanding quality - a must!

I have used other Hi8 cartridges but in my experience nothing compares to the quality of Sony. I'm an active member of a band and we play about every week. I mount my camera (Sony TRV340) on a tripod and have it photographed at all of our venues. As a result, I use quite a few tapes per month. So I need a reliable quality brand that I can trust; Sony High8. The video quality is excellent, even after several reshoots (reshoots of footage). The same goes for clay; crisp and clear (especially if…
