Mini DV tapes for a camcorder

[minniemouseuk]

Hi,

Does anywhere in WDW sell mini DV tapes for a camcorder?

If yes, are they OK to use in a camcorder purchased in the UK (I don't know if they're different to those bought in the US)?

I'll be taking plenty with me, but just in case I run out, it would handy to know if they're sold anywhere 'on property'

You should be able to get them from the uk, try looking on http//:www.amazon.co.uk and type in the box at the top of the page camcorder tapes. They usually have a good stock for camcorder accessories, you can find most of the brands listed and the site will tell you what models the accessories are suitable for. If all else fails you could try one of the shops on Main St in the MK they stock batteries and films so there should be some tapes there too although the price may be a bit more.

Hi,
Mini DV tapes are available on Disney property but at a price!
I make sure I take plenty with me and usually buy from here:

I bought my last lot from 7dayshop also, you will probably get 5 there for cost of 1 in WDW.

Thanks for all your tips.

I'll take plenty of tapes with me, but, out of interest, how much did the mini DV tapes purchased from WDW cost?

 

[minniemouseuk]

Oh I forgot to ask where in WDW you bought them from, too?

If I were you I would visit a Walmart out there, just looked on the website and they are selling a pack for 3 x 60 min mini DV tapes plus a free camera case for $11.84, which is less than £6!

I have just read Poundland have the JVC DV tapes in. £1 is a bargain if you live near one. Not on their website so can't confirm.
