I find miniDV tapes to be less expensive storage. Why not buy a 10 or so pack?
Bob
I have a PowerBook and will soon have a Panasonic GS400, both of which I will be taking on a week and a half long trip to Antarctica. It is important to me to be able to store and edit all my video without loss of quality (like compression) while I am there.
I'm trying to evaluate my need for an external HD. Can someone either explain to me (or point me in the direction of an article) how much disk space is typically used (by iMovie specifically, if it's different from others) when storing and editing DV.
Thanks,
David
