• PAL camcorders only work with a PAL or Multi-System TV mainly used outside the USA. If you do not have this type of TV then you can buy the CMD-1500 to convert the signal between PAL and NTSC. Then you can use your PAL camcorder in a NTSC country like the USA, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Korea, etc,...

• DVD models record in total digital quality on digital tape. This is the best type of camcorder at this time.

• Mini-DV and MicroMV models record in total digital quality on digital tape.

• Hi-8 and Digital 8 models are a step down from mini-DV. They are still good for the average consumer.

• VHS-C models are the most economical and also very popular. They offer a compact size camcorder and you can still use the tape in a regular VHS player!
