Digital8 Video Transfer
We transfer, copy and convert camcorder Digital8 video tapes to MP4 and AVI digital files Editable File Formats.
The Digital8 video format was at it's most popular through the 1990's. It was introduced by Sony and showed a significant improvement in quality over the two other existing 8mm formats, Video8 and Hi8.
Digital8 Video was relatively short lived as users upgraded their systems to Mini DV and and eventually Hard Drive camcorders.
Digital8 video camcorders and Digital8 tape players are no longer made, meaning that many people have family memories on videotapes with no way of watching them.
Depending on how they are stored, Digital8 tapes have a life of around 5 to 20 years before they start degrading.
Left long enough, they will become unplayable leaving those precious family memories in danger of being lost forever.
