JVC HRDVS3U Mini-DV/S-VHS Combo, Silver
it just doesn't work w/Canon XL1 tapes
i shoot miniDV on a CanonXL1, and this deck just won't play the tapes without introducing artifacts every 45 seconds or so.<br />on the other hand, it makes a great parking block for my Audi, albeit an expensive one.<br />i would NOT buy this product if you aquire images on Canon or Sony cameras, as (by all indications) it'll perform as well as President Bush articulates (ie: it won't).
