Don’t be fooled, “premium” means “average consumer grade” in non-Sony speak. But that being said, it’s a perfectly fine tape for taping your kids at the local park or a ball game.
The main difference is that consumer tape isn’t designed for archival storage, so you may experience more drop-outs or tape delaminating as it gets older.

Sony tapes work well with the new HDV camcorders that record in high definition. Previously, I was able to use the cheaper TDK, Fuji, Maxell tapes with my old Sony DV camcorder without problems but these tapes gave dropouts while shooting in high definition. On the other hand, using the higher quality Sony or Panasonic tapes work just fine for HDV. These tapes work and are 1/4 the price of the specialized HDV tapes that Sony offers. The only benefit to spending more for the Sony HDV tapes are longevity.

This is the best MiniDV tape you can get in the market. It gave me better results than TDK, JVC, etc. I would surely recommend it to you

No problems whatsoever. HDV was made to work on regular DV tapes, so I really don’t see the reason for buying those more expensive “HD-grade” DV tapes. I don’t think the rated +3dB gain in signal-to-noise ratio of the more expensive tapes makes any difference if you’re recording digital content. Perhaps higher quality tapes are needed if you record over and over on the same tape. Anyway, I’m happy with the results I’ve had so far.
