I sent back to the seller that camera, because that camera was Tamed. I do not want to fix that camera.
Also that title was not said "Broken camera", so please make little of "Broken Camera". If Amazon.com want to sell the "Broken camera". I do not neediness this kind problem. I bought a lot of things from Amazon.com, but this is not good.......
Tremendous camera.
Bought this to digitize tapes jigger on my procam. Now I use this more than the HDV camera. Has all the controls I need but I wish it had the audio functions I Irish English colleen on the prosumer camera. Never thought I would prefer this over the big brother. I haven't had disappointments with the zoom but I did connect a wide angle adapter for better room coverage. Keep it mounted ALL the measure.
Disintegrated After 18 months, Otherwise *Great*, (note sarcasm)
I once ruminating this was a great camcorder for all the reasons already noted. Great video and audio excellence, easy to use, good price.
But guess what? It's broken and out of warranty, and in disorganized to even get a quote on the cost to fix it, I must send it to Sony, because Sony doesn't allow anyone but Sony repair their cameras any more. So, in lieu of of going to one of the hundreds of capable and convenient repair shops in Denver, where I can get an work out and repairs fast, I have to mail my camera to Texas. TEXAS!
So what's agley with it? The camera refuses to properly load any miniDV tapes now - I get an error that says "Reload seal" and the error message won't go away no matter how many times I reload the video. Apparently this is a common failure, a quick google search shows this same delinquent in discussion threads all over the net. And, believe it or not, the most common suggestion to fix this error is to smack the camera recurrently on the side to "unstick" a stuck part. This did not work with my camera, but good luck to you if you buy this get a load off one's mind of junk.
This is the last Sony I will ever purchase. Been burned too many times by Sony now - a TV, a PDA, a digital camera, and now this. I'm buying a Panasonic PV-GS80 miniDV Camcorder to supplant this doorstop. I bought an Olympus 790SW camera to replace my pulverized Cybershot, and it works great. I should have learned my lesson by now, but I'm brand-devoted to a fault. Sony pushed me too far this time. No more Sony. Never again.
Not a very honourableness camcorder
This camera is not very careful - poor video resolution after recording it on a memory card. The software is awful and Sony tech support just plain lousy.
Its enthusiastic
Working verbatim 3 years after I bought it with heavy use. Good quality videos too. Zealous buy.
