MiniDV tape playback / format problems?

Hi My United States faithful to buy JVC Mini DV camcorder broke recently and I bought a new JVC model in the UK. My old tape archives raw Video does not play in the new camcorder. The new one is the widescreen format, but may switch back to a standard format. Nor is high definition. The only difference is that I bought one in the U.S. and one in the UK. Two questions really - help me understand and fix the problem. Is there a specific coding region Mini DV tape (PAL vs. NTSC) or has the JVC uses coding changed in the last 4 years. What can I do to play the "old" tapes? Thank you!

You have to get a NTSC video camera to play old tapes. It really is not specific coding region, are these two formats different. NTSC is 29.97 frames per second, PAL is 25, and the number of lines is different. They are incompatible formats. Where are you planning to see the tapes? The U.S. or the UK? EDIT: Good point, pureinsomniac. Certainly, if the camera lets you change the configuration, the easiest way to do it. My guess is that it does not, but then again, I have a. JVC thus recapitulating. If you can get your hands on an NTSC camera and most of its filming is done in the U.S. so that you are watching on U.S. TV or other countries with NTSC, I would consider getting a new camera NTSC PAL and the sale of one of them if the camera actually does not let you select the format (especially if there have been many films PAL). If the camera can be changed, then hey, all good, without problems. Now if you're in the UK and plan to see your stuff on TV in the UK or other countries that use PAL, then certainly keep PAL camera and considering any conversion if you need to use or view your NTSC tapes for any reason. A camera could also be economic NTSC a good idea if you have many tapes, so that it can be used as a mallet instead of paying more to the tapes have been transferred. It all depends on the current camera functions and their needs.

Description

The Panasonic HDC-HS900 High Definition Camcorder features 1920 x 1080/60p recording, a 220GB hard disk drive, an SD memory card slot, the option to record in 3D and a quality image sensor system. These features give you detailed, beautiful images, a plethora of recording space and the ability to shoot fun and unique movies in 3D with an optional lens. Panasonic's proprietary '3MOS' is a 3 sensor CMOS that adds up to 9.15MP (3 x 3.05MP). These sensors work together with another Panasonic technology, Crystal Engine PRO. This engine is a fast processor which writes those gigantic HD files to the HDD or SD card quickly and efficiently. It also allows for high-res zooming when exceeding the optical range. In addition, the engine works to reduce image noise, rendering beautiful, life-like images. These two work together to produce 1080/60p footage. The "p" means progressive; when recording in a progressive frame rate the footage captures is more vibrant and detailed than even "i", or interlaced, HD recording. In the world of consumer camcorders, 1080p is the gold standard. Of course the sensor and engine wouldn't be able to do their job without a high-quality lens. The HS900 comes with a 35mm Leica Dicomar lens that sports a 3.45-41.4mm focal length, 12x optical zoom range, 46mm filter diameter and a 1.5-2.8 f/stop. Lens can zoom up to 20x using the Intelligent Zoom; and it features a manual ring for more control and creativity with your shooting. Another way in which the camera works to create clean video is with HYBRID O.I.S. (optical image stabilization). This O.I.S. keeps your shots steady when hand-holding the camera. It reduces the effects of hand-shake for an easy-to-view, clean shot. Other useful tools of the camera include a very generous 3.5" touch screen LCD. This screen provides you with options like, "Touch Zoom" and "Touch Shutter". The zoom function allows you to zoom in by dragging your finger across the LCD. The s
