DV compatibility - Sony, Panasonic, Cannon?

from Michele Hyde (mhyde@operamail.com)
I have a GL1. I just returned from serving in the Peace Corps. I'm looking for a job and I want to put together a new reel. Most of my old stuff is on Beta right now. I want to dub it to MiniDV, so I can use my camera and firewire connection to edit it at home on my mac. My question is about compatibility. I remember once having a problem playing a Sony DVCAM tape in a Panasonic deck. I had to change some setting to get it to play. I was considering asking a friend of mine to dub the Beta tape to MiniDV tapes on a Panasonic deck, but I'm afraid the tapes won't play from my Cannon camera. Do you know anything about compatibility issues between Cannon and Panasonic?
