Best Tape Brand

[bownut]

Any preference on the best brand to use for shooting in the 100B?

 

[HorseFilms]

I use Panasonic Master Quality tapes and have had no problems.

 

[SilverWolf]

I've used the Sony premium tapes and the've worked no problems
Just make sure you pick a brand and stick with it

I echo HorseFilms.

Panny MQ tapes and Panny MQ tapes only.

I also concur with SilverWolf.

Regardless which brand you pick, once you pick, stick with it.

Or have a pro cleaning done on the heads before you switch brands.

I use the Pan MQ only and I've never had a dropped frame on a first use tape, and I've reused some tapes up to 4 times and I've never had more than a single dropped frame from an an entire hour's footage.

I certainly trust the Panny MQs.
