If condensation does occur, you will not be able to
operate the DA-98 controls, and you will see the
following message on the display:

off and on again before starting recording.
If you are going to use the DA-98 in a location
where you think condensation is likely to occur,
move the DA-98 into the warmer location about
one or two hours before recording is due to start,
and leave it switched on. Turn the DA-98 off and
then on again before starting recording.

1.5 Recommended tapes
The DA-98 is designed for use with Hi8 video
cassettes. You cannot use any other kind of tape
with the DA-98.

There are two basic types of Hi8 tape: MP and
ME. Each has its own particular characteristics

ME. Each has its own particular characteristics

•
MP tapes are manufactured using a daubed
magnetic particle deposit process and exhibit a
level of performance which is more than
acceptable. They have a durability which
allows them to be used as work tapes in studio
and post-production environments.

•
ME tapes have their magnetic layer produced
through a metal evaporation process. Generally
speaking, though these tapes have a high per-
formance level, they are not as robust as MP
tapes (see above) and should be used for live
recording and archival purposes, rather than as
work tapes.
