When I go to public functions I take my Panasonic vhs-c camcorder which has lots of options clear picture and does a great job, but my wife says she is embarrassed when I whip that thing out to take videos.
Everyone else is "filming" with digital palm sized camera's, but heck it's old but it still gets the job done
... and it cost me $700 bucks 12 years ago when I bought it.
What should I do?

What is more important to you, your camcorder or your wife's feelings?

This may be unusual, but more than 35 years ago I was once told that 'either that computer goes or she does'. Well, the computer is still here and probably caused less trouble over all the years.

Divorce, or go out alone.
“But I don't want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you can't help that,” said the Cat: “we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.”
“How do you know I'm mad?” said Alice.
“You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn't have come here.” Lewis Carroll

So does a digital video camera that records to flash media. Also, your flash media will probably last a lot longer (and is more economical to use) than VHS-C tapes.

Will the flash media be compatible with his IBM PC/AT ?

Only if you upgrade to DOS 3.2.

Let her know that you are embarrassed to go out in public with someone who is embarrassed to go out with you.
That should solve it.
After all, I bet those little gizmo recorder things everyone eles has will break in less than 12 years, and your big ole vhs-c camcorder will still be working! No sense wasting money on feelings.

Stop using your wife to film porn in public places.

At least move ahead a few years... Craigslist is filled with "last years" models for more than reasonable prices.
I bought a Panasonic HC-V520 for $125 with all the cables extra SD cards and all accessories the Best Buy kid sold to the fella I bought it from. And the picture is far superior and the prices of SD cards are probably on par with a pack of new VHS-C tapes, if you can find them.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

If you Google "wet and wild" in the UK now you get a weather report.

Have you tried "wild and wet"?
