HDV tapes - Where to buy them in Dublin

highdef · 2008-10-26 20:12:25

Good evening. Just wondering if anyone knows anywhere in Dublin that I can buy some HDV tapes? Brand is not too important. Must be HDV though and need to buy in Dublin. Doing an important project next week and can't risk any dropped frames by using standard DV tapes. Thansk guys :)

We've been getting out tape and dvd stock from them for years. Decent people to deal with.

You're probably sorted by now but for future ref Pixels and the Sony Centre (by the Shelbourne Hotel) stock mini HDV tapes.

I know but using standard DV tapes gives me a higher chance of getting drop-outs, which I could not have with my last project
