I sent back to the seller that camera, because that camera was BROKEN. I do not want to fix that camera.
Also that title was not said "Broken camera", so please write "Broken Camera". If Amazon.com want to sell the "Broken camera". I do not want this kind problem. I bought a lot of things from Amazon.com, but this is not good.......


4Great camera.  Jun 07, 2008
Bought this to digitize tapes shot 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 miss 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 install a wide angle adapter for better room coverage. Keep it mounted ALL the time.

1Broken After 18 months, Otherwise *Great*, (note sarcasm)  Mar 12, 2008
I once thought this was a great camcorder for all the reasons already noted. Great video and audio quality, easy to use, good price.

But guess what? It's broken and out of warranty, and in order 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, instead of going to one of the hundreds of capable and convenient repair shops in Denver, where I can get an estimate and repairs fast, I have to mail my camera to Texas. TEXAS!

So what's wrong with it? The camera refuses to properly load any miniDV tapes now - I get an error that says "Reload tape" and the error message won't go away no matter how many times I reload the tape. Apparently this is a common failure, a quick google search shows this same problem 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 repeatedly on the side to "unstick" a stuck part. This did not work with my camera, but good luck to you if you buy this piece 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 replace this doorstop. I bought an Olympus 790SW camera to replace my broken Cybershot, and it works great. I should have learned my lesson by now, but I'm brand-loyal to a fault. Sony pushed me too far this time. No more Sony. Never again.

1Not a very good camcorder  Nov 18, 2007
This camera is not very good - poor video resolution after recording it on a memory card. The software is horrible and Sony tech support just plain lousy.

3Its good  Sep 01, 2007
Working perfectly 3 years after I bought it with heavy use. Good quality videos too. Great buy.
