The GR-DVL815 also boasts a range of recording formats, including SP (Standard Play) and LP (Long Play), allowing users to choose between video quality and recording time. The camcorder supports MiniDV tapes, another feature that was popular due to the compact size of the media and the high-quality recording it allowed.
