Re: Is a Hi8 Cassette the same as a VHS-C one?
Video 8 and Hi-8 were mostly camcorder standards, though Sony did try to sell some standalone Video 8 VCRs for a time. The standard was also used by Exabyte to build helical scan data recorders - their first model contained an almost unmodified Sony camcorder chassis, though the systems diverged somewhat after that, with different tape formulations being developed..
