Between Video Formats
Spectra PhotoVideo specializes in converting your videos between the various video formats. We support the following original formats:

DVD	VHS	miniDV	miniDV-HD
BetaCam SP	U-Matic	DVCam	DVCam-HD
S-VHS	Digital8	Hi-8	VHS-C

Converting your video to the DVD format allows you to preserve your video for many years to come. While tape degrades every time you play it, DVDs can be played thousands of times without any change in quality. Not only will they be preserved, but with DVD you can take advantage of the power of DVD to navigate your video.
