If you have an old camcorder or tapes definitely use it and digitize the footage but for all others don’t feel like you are missing out! Have a great day everyone and share the video with someone who would enjoy this :)

I dispute the part about the VHS tapes degrading. Sure they'll degrade if you leave them in the sun, somewhere wet, or in a hot attic. But tapes kept in your normal house conditions will be fine after decades. Same goes for audio cassettes too. All those people talking about degraded tapes probably kept them in their attic, storage shed, or basement.

If you want to record clear video with VHS/VHS-C/HI8/Mini DV, use an external recorder like an Atomos. That's what I do and the footage is really nice, I do it by using a HDMI converter into an Atomos Assassin and it captured the footage in real time, it's a lot cheaper now than it used to be and I HIGHLY recommend it. You can digitize tapes, or not use them at all and just record straight to the recorder. VHS-C and HI8 look insanely nice on an external recorder, I recommend it more than the elgato capture device.

Finding a Super VHS-C from Panasonic with TBC and has also the “ET” function which is the same to the “XR” function some analog Sony cameras had is definitely worth way more your time and effort than regular VHS or VHS-C cameras that doesn’t have s-video, TBC or the “ET” function. For audio all was mono even for the stereo ones.

The best ever VHS camcorder towards the end of Panasonic's VHS era was the superb NV-M10. It had the best hi-fi stereo VHS sound quality delivered via a stereo AV zoom microphone which captured superb stereo sound in WIDE mode, captured the sounds of your subject with a much diluted stereo effect close up with TELE mode and zoomed in and out with the zoom in ZOOM mode. It also had a stereo mic socket and accessory mount to use an external stereo microphone too.

I used OBS with one of those vhs to digital cables to record, but the files were HUGE, probably something to do with my settings at the time, but they were easily 80-100gb for less than hour of footage.

You could save some money, as the elgato device probably provides minimal if any video quality improvement compared to a regular $10 usb video capture device. Also, with the elgato or another usb capture device, you can almost certainly capture video with any capture/editing software(an included 'camera' app, OBS, VLC, etc) instead of using the bundled software, just select the appropriate device in the input settings for video & audio

We have a ton of old family VHS and VHS-C tapes taken with three different VHS video cameras. I dug up our old (latest) Panasonic camcorder and viewed some tapes. Ugh! Most footage is dark, not clear/not sharp, colors are not realistic. Camera came with plain wire yellow and white TV connector cable, picture on on camera LCD looks OK, enlarged on TV looks awful. I bought a Funai VHS to DVD converter combo a number of years ago from QVC, planning to preserve old VHS footage on VHS. I'm hoping the long unused Funai converter will work and not require new capacitors, etc. Wish me luck.

hey bro, i know you know, but those batteries are old as shit lol. you’ll get a Ton more use out of the camcorders if you buy some after market batteries on amazon. with a fresh battery, those old camcorders can hold a charge for days, and record for Several hours
