Sony's DigitalMaster videotape causes 90 percent fewer errors compared to MiniDV tape.

Sony's new DigitalMaster DVCAM videotape reduces the rate of dropouts by 50 percent or more and causes 90 percent fewer errors compared to MiniDV tape.

This translates to significant benefits in common independent applications, such as using a single camera to discreetly capture a scene or shooting documentaries, where there is no chance for a second take.

Sony's DigitalMaster videotape is able to cut dropout rates in half due to tighter tolerances used during manufacturing. This not only provides peace of mind when capturing critical footage, but also makes the postproduction process run more smoothly.
