MiniDV
Introduced in 1995, this digital tape format was made popular by affordable “palmcorders” in the late 1990s and early 2000s. MiniDV tapes were usually 60 minutes (90 minutes in Long Play mode), but some tapes were 80 minutes (120 minutes on Long Play mode). When a 60-minute miniDV tape is captured on a computer the file is about 13GB.
