Anatomy of a Mini DV Tape
Digital video is recorded on a tape called a Mini DV Cassette (DVC) that occupies less than half the volume of a 8mm cassette and holds one hour of video - an amazing 11GB of data on a tape 65 meters long. It's this small cassette size that makes possible much smaller and more portable camcorders.
