I will be ordering my DVX on thursday. I have heard a lot about the importance of using MQ tapes. I have, however, had a hard time finding a reputable dealer that sells them. How much should these tapes cost, and where are the best places that people have bought them? Thanks for your imput.

Re: MQ Tapes.

I'm wondering if they're worth the trouble. I keep hearing about incompatibilty issues, they're expensive, and I have yet to hear from anyone but Panasonic that they actually deliver better perfomance than your average minidv tape.
 
Re: MQ Tapes.

yeah.. they rock. That banner isn't paid advertising, I put it there because they give me great service and the best prices... and agreed to do so for all the DVXuser.com users.
 
Re: MQ Tapes.

lol.. some people have trained themselves to ignore banners.

Anyways, I am just above you in Vancouver and I usually get my stuff in 2 days via fedex.. I imagine it should get to you quicker. They really are on the ball.
 
Re: MQ Tapes.

If you live in Canada, especially Vancouver, check out:
http://www.thetapehouse.com/. They sell MQ tapes for CDN$6.75 each in boxes of 5. I'm not sure where they ship to, so you will have to call them. If you live in the US, i think you can get the same price, or better, from US suppliers without having to worry about international shipping charges and customs.
 
Re: MQ Tapes.

yes indeed.. Im actually going to tapehouse this afternoon :)

They are good there.. but have a habit of not returning emails so I would recommend actually driving to them.. and if you are lucky you may be able to do a little tour of the manufacturing in the back.. pretty cool to see.
