For a given value of great. The only tapes I'd describe as looking great are HDV tapes, and even then they're anamorphic and interlaced.
I'm all for owning media but whenever I see stuff like this I wonder what the person is watching stuff on. Tapes were fine on titchy CRTs but they look pretty horrid on TVs from this decade.
Somewhat ironically they'd probably look fine on the mobile devices the younguns favour!
Well I have multiple crts haha. I use my flat-screen too and it looks fine. I've never cared about visual quality as much as audio
