Good for its time
I got this camera solely to use as a player to use with a USB capture adapter to digitize old Video 8 videos from the 1990's. It worked fine for that, but it also still does a decent job with analog video recording. It won't be replacing a current-vintage HD digital video camcorder, but it's one of the better choices from 1999-2000.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

doesn’t read tapes so it can’t record anything
i really like this camera and was super excited to use it, the video quality appeals to my sensibilities and i love the effects it offers. however, the camera can’t seem to read the blank tapes i’ve put into it. it shows a “no tape” and an “eject” icon whenever there is a tape inside, and only shows the “no tape” icon when there isn’t one. this means i can’t record anything at all. i would love to know if here is a way i can fix this and if not, the product should not have been advertised as tested and functionalVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Better than not at all
Operated only one day.touch panel does not function.error message c 22.Sometimes will play after a couple of smacks.Will only eject tape after many attempts.I use my old camera to rewind.Camera and accessories arrived well packed and good appearance. Purchased to view old tapes. it is frustrating,Hope the “smacking” gets the job done . To play must press pause. Nuff said. Did not buy for parts the offer started camera was workingVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Camcorder critique
Had to order a new battery. No big deal. Old one wouldn't take a charge, which is normal. Looking to download tapes into my computer with pinnacle movie studio program. We'll see!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good quality, small things not working properly
The view back controls are messed up. I can’t watch back any tapes unless I hold down buttons.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
