Disc systems are good for broadcasters and news crews, but archiving is much easier when you shoot on tape.


Why would archiving via tape be easier for a home camcorder? I'd imagine having a large hard drive and just being able to copy the raw files around is quicker and easier for archival then having to go through the tape -> file process via firewire/usb.


And for Phil:
I remember episode 54 of MacBreak weekly was discussing a lot about the AVCHD camcorders, though I have to admit I wasn't paying much attention to it at the time. Might be worth a listen though.
