I'm interested in buying a $299 camcorder that pretty much has everything I want in a camcorder, but it only allows LP instead of SP. What are the differences and what are the pros and cons for both? Will this affect the quality of the video I shoot?
What's the difference between SP and LP and its pros/cons?
"SP" stands for "Standard Play". It will be the best quality recording. "LP" is "Long Play", and will have a subsequent quality loss. A 120 minute tape will record 240 minutes in LP.
Reply:The quality of LP is less than SP; however, you get much more time to shoot videos. Try it out before you buy it.
Reply:The only differace is that LP allows a longer recording time than the SP format on a tape, at the cost of some recording quality.
Reply:Tapes are cheap, so don't lower the quality of your recordings, it's not worth it. If you need to record events over 60 mins onto one tape regularly, buy a different type of camera.
