He has posted since being asked to supply data but alas has failed to
deliver the aforementioned.
Check out these data I've been able to locate:
Brand Coercivity Retentivity
Fuji 120kA/m 450mT
Pana PQ 120kA/m 450mT
Maxell DVME60 120kA/m 450mT
Sony PR/EX 105kA/m 500mT
Sony HDV 125kA/m 550mT
Pana MQ 120kA/m 500mT
Sony DVCAM 105kA/m 500mT
My understanding is that retentivity is the more important figure.
All the above data was found by googling. I tried to find several
references to back up each data but it was not always possible. I did
however come across several posts from Mr. Tapeguy reciting his mantra of PQ
is the better tape. The figures above would suggest otherwise at the very
least one shouldn't overly worry about which tape brand or type one uses.
Just treat them with respect and there shouldn't be any problems.
I am going to continue to use Sony cheapos.
For someone making a living out of selling tapes I am surprised that Mr.
Tapeguy wasn't able to post tape data to support his claims.
