Sony DVM4CLD2 Mini DV Camcorder Cleaning Tape (Japan)

Worked first time

Brutally and exploitatively expensive for what it is, there seemed no choice but to try if I wanted to be able to review some old mini DV tapes. There seemed some improvement in reading the particular tape I was wanting, but it's hard to be sure what role this cleaning tape played. However, it appears the genuine article and behaved correctly. I can't read Japanese, but you don't really need to be able to. Worth a shot if you can't manage another way., hence four stars. Delivery etc fine.

Did the job delivered earlier than expected

Well I was hoping this would sort out my camcorder but it didn’t work for me

Quick delivery - quality item

absolute rubbish, did not work, tape repeatedly escaped from the guide and eventually jammed in the camera so had to be destroyed to remove, fortunately, as far as I know did not damage the camera.

Great product. Used it on an old camcorder that wouldnt play video tapes, it solved the problem, ran the head leaner fore 10 se onds, j9b done.

Did not make any difference to my camcorder which hadn’t been used for years but seems to work well on some cams. Disappointed that it didn’t work for me

1回目のクリーニングで見れるようになりました!昔のテープが見られて良かったです。

Very good! These are hard to find now so it's great to see there's an option to buy them on Amazon for fast delivery. Anyhow, this didn't fit my use case

Ottimo perché mi serviva e non lo trovavo più

I got out my old Sony VX2000 video camera to test it. I had black streaks on the recorded tape, both in the camera and the Sony playback deck. I order this tape and cleaned both the deck and camera. Basically pressed "play" for 10 seconds on both machines. Solved the problem. The old camera can still record and tapes play back without an issue.

Genial
