Small size (MiniDV)
Small cassettes (66 × 48 × 12.2 mm), also known as S-size or MiniDV cassettes, had been intended for amateur use, but were accepted in professional productions as well. MiniDV cassettes were used for recording baseline DV, DVCAM, and HDV. These cassettes came in capacities up to 14–20.8 GB for 63 or 90 minutes of DV or HDV.
