Sony Digital 8 mm Videotape Handycam!!!!
This is a very nice unit..... i purchased this unit to use in my Videotape to Dvd transfer business. I discovered for the first time in several years that some tapes brought to me by customers when played looked as though they were bad when being played on my Hi 8 sony handycam. What i discovered with one customer was that the tapes themselves were not bad, but rather recorded in Digitial 8 format which when played on a Standard Hi 8 handycam would in fact not play. Digital 8 camera's record in a different format from those recorded on a Hi 8 camera. I did not know that and many others did not know that as well. Since making this discovery i can offer my customers digital 8 transfers and have purchased several digital 8 camcorders for making those transfers. I still remains a fact even today that the best sony handycam is the HI 8 XR series such as the CCD-TRV65, CCD-TRV-66 series....these cameras are the XR HI 8 Stereo series cameras.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great price! AWESOME PURCHASE!
The Sony Digital 8 camera was shipped quickly and arrived within the stated time frame. It was in great shape. Barely noticeable scrapes. Worked perfectly. I was able to review recordings from 24 years ago. Wife was happy. Happy wife, happy life! Kids were thrilled to see videos from as early as 2 years old. Precious memories. Great price! Awesome purchase. Thank you!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Sony Dig8 camera
The camera did what I wanted it to do, that is, migrate my Dig 8 videos onto my computer. I wish the image quality was a little better, but it's an old camera, old technology, but it did the trick. Not bad for the price! Thanks.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A huge link to the past
I bought this only to be able to watch some old digital 8 tapes of my kids. Works perfectly. I will add that while I bought the FireWire to connect to my PC I was sad to learn that there are no drivers supported for this camera in Windows 10, but that doesn’t mean you can’t watch on TV! Seriously a great find and why eBay is great!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Item is exactly how it says it is and the owner was responsive until the return process got dragged out a bit. But if you buy something, they will more than likely be responsive and chill.Verified purchase: Yes
