Re: Looking for a new camcorder
There were really only two popular analog tape formats (not including VHC and BETA of course) - 8mm and VHS-C. The tapes will say on them which type they are. The VHS-C tapes look like minature VHC tapes in that the little white gear looking thing on the bottom is the same size as a standard VHS tape.
