    Piece of JUNK not cable that fits the camera

    The cable that came with the camera do not fit the camera. It makes a loud noise when it's turned in. Waisted my money. Will not order from that person again. Doesn't work tape get stuck. The charger doesn't work. Lies in his description. NOT HAPPY AT ALL with this purchase. Has to put one start or I could not leave a comment

  • What I was looking for

    The camera looked great with minimal scratches. It looked almost new, and performed as I would expect from a Sony camera. The only issue was there was no cable to connect audio and video to my computer. So I purchased one and everything works great.

  • It works like new. Even the night vision...

    It works like new. Even the night vision is working. I have a few hours of video tapes of when my kids were 30 years younger than now and my youngest daughter lost her life just over twenty years ago. For years I couldn't remember the model number of the camera that can play those tapes. Through online searching I finally conformed the correct model number. I have already watched videos that I hadn't seen in many years

  • Handicam

    Works well. I have an older model, non digital, was hoping that they would be reverse compatible but the are not. So if you have an old camera and you upgrade keep your old one until you transfer the tapes.

  • Oldie but Goodie!

    Replaced my broken video camera with this exact model. Great video camera despite its age. Much better than current handycams. Delivered exact as described in a well-packaged box, with a thoughtful note inside. Very pleased!

  • I wish I had the instructions I maybe have figured it out

    Sometimes it didn’t read the tape. Sometimes I couldn’t play the take back. Sometimes I couldn’t record, and sometimes the reader was not reading the amount in the tape that was left.
