Good unit for transferring video to PC, just OK purchase from seller
1 of 1 found this helpful I needed one of these units so that I could transfer my Digital8 tapes to PC. I have a TRV310, but the motor is shot, so I needed a similar unit with a working motor. This unit was marked in eBay as refurbished, so I took a chance on it. I have transferred several tapes now and the motor appears to work fine. However, it did -not- come with a remote control--which is needed if you want to check the date/time on the videos as you work with them, because the camcorder itself has no button for it--and fortunately, the remote control I had with my 310 also works with this 340. Also, this unit did -not- come with a memory card as shown in the photo. And, this unit's button panel on the top is dented as though someone took a small hammer to it, although the panel buttons work fine, at least so far. And, this unit has a hand grip where the leather part is crumbling and makes a mess wherever I place it. So, although the main part that I needed works fine--the motor--the purchase was well short of what I expected for $160, compared to similar units out there on eBay.
(Also Note! For this 340, only Firewire works with Windows 10. USB transfer does not--according to Sony themselves--so if you get a unit like this, make sure your PC/laptop has a Firewire input and you have the right 1394 cable!)
