- While it's a demo tape for a Hi8 camera, it seems this demo tape normal 8mm format. Presumably it came with the camcorder or something.
Digitized from a Sony CCD-TRV66E camera.
Neat supplemental instruction manual tape. Everything needs one of these if you ask me.
My respect for people who think, design and create this cameras in an age when already computers does exist, but not as they do today!!
Imported camera's like the CCDV600e / V700e and V800e (AEP/PAL color system) where official only camcorders not videorecorders due import tax in Europe (not abroad like in the US (NTSC color system)). You could modify them by using a slight modified Sony RM-95 (add R018 = 10 kOhm +1 jumper) remote to change data inside those camcorders. Also add a switch (9 (3x3, common in the middle) pins for audio L/R IN/OUT and composite video IN/OUT) on videoboard. Frame rec switch became a rec switch in VTR mode and in CAM mode it stayed as a frame Rec switch . Great time as former Sony technician (1983-2010). Bought recently a CCD-V800e with many defect , leaking elco's and are toxid. Hard to fix = replace. Also standerd mechanical problems like mode switch too much thick clue and tape guides getting lose and broken copper plates under the tape guides. Now owner of 2 DSR-PDX10P miniDV camcorders.
Yea the caps in these early 90s sonys seem to all go bad over time, I don't have any of these but I have some others like a TR705e and a TR840e that I started on trying to fix at one point.
Luckily their big brothers, the CCD-V5000E and CCD-V6000E had video input capabilities.
SVHS may have enough luminance bandwidth, but Hi8 delivers better noise performance. Here in the UK, SVHSC got hardly any market penetration compared to Hi8. I run a video transfer business and see Hi8 tapes every week. SVHSC tapes I may not get from one month to the next. At 12:48 there's a EV-S1000E Hi8 deck, I actually have a working example of that quite rare model. The EV-S9000E was a later model which sold quite well despite a huge price tag.
Yup, I do video transfers in Norway, and I see the same thing. SVHSC is quite rare compared to Hi8.
I've found that the SVHS tapes I have from the same time frame as the Hi8 tapes I have (1990-93) have aged badly and have distorted color while the Hi8 tapes have maintained image quality.
What about a little Hi8 Vs SVHS?

This model is similar like my grandpa's Handycam, Sony Handycam CCD F300, unfortunately i can't even find the parts and the charger, even the manual book are little bit hard to find in the internet
I have a couple Sony handycams. nice!
A camcorder like this was my dream back in the day, Makes me wanna go buy one now and re-live my 20's, But what for? I can't bring back those years that passed without this camcorder being in the palm of my hands. Oh well, that's just how life is sometimes. oln do you mind selling this tape to me? I want to digitize it myself, thanks.
I don't have the tape unfortunately. It was something we got in for digitizing where I used to work together with other tapes and has long been returned to the owner. I can send you the raw capture if you want though. UA-cam killed the quality a bit with compression, should have uploaded in higher res but didn't know at the time.
@@analogvideochannel4612 How big the raw footage? Can it be sent over the cloud?
@@Capturing-Memories about 4.6 Gb when compressing with ffv1+flac, can send it via google drive probably, should maybe put it on the internet archive as well.
@@analogvideochannel4612 Are they AVI files? Would HuffYUV be better?
I will be contacting you with an email address.
Go ahead and buy it! I bought a ccd-f350E and im 13! Sadly all of these camcorders from the start to 1994 had bad capacitors, but i will replace them!
Thanks for posting this! I used three models of Sony video cameras for my Tokyo video project from 1990 through to 1993. The Sony CCD-V900, CCD-V700 (the Japanese market NTSC version of the camera featured in this video), and the CCD-V800 (x2). Do you have any information on the CCD-V800? it was very similar to the CCD-V700. The main differences I remember being time code was recorded on the tape with the CCD-V800 and the CCD-V800 had a 10x optical zoom. Incidentally, I burned out all four of the cameras with heavy use. While under warranty all cameras typically needed servicing every three months or so (due to heavy use).
No sorry I don't really know much about these models. You can often find manuals floating around on the internet but if not it can be hard to tell the specifics.
Hey, thanks for making this!
Does anyone know what battery is needed for one of these as im trying to buy one that does not have a battery.
thank you!
I think it uses the standard early 90s consumer camcorder sony batteries but no idea where to find ones that aren't dead.
Np-77 for example
@@karate_official Okay cool thx
quanto costa questa video camera, vorrei comprarla.
can i ask a question?
Ask away!
do you know where I can get a working version of one of these?
I'm not sure, the early 90s Sony 8mm camcorders are notorious for having surface mounted capacitors inside that leak and eventually corrode and ruin the circuit boards if left long enough. And, since everything is super compact it can be a pain to repair them so unless you want spend a bunch of time and energy to try to fix one up yourself it might be difficult to find one that has been serviced or is properly working. The later models from around 94 (not sure exact year) and on or something don't have this issue.
@@analogvideochannel4612 i like the ccd-f/v models because they have the superimposer, but i wonder if any sony models from 1994 onward have one? if you know any models that have a superimposer lemme know
I used four of these when they were new from 1990-93: the CCD-V900, CCD-V700 and CCD-V800. Even when new, they were fragile machines that broke down often if you used them much. Typically I had to take mine in for servicing every three months. Considering they were that fragile when new from the factory, I wouldn't recommend using them now - after 30 years! Capacitors weren't a problem when they were new, but the heads would easily clog and the mechanically complicated tape loading mechanism would also have problems sometimes. On one of them the image sensor burned out and had to be replaced. I loved them at the time (they were the best thing available in the "prosumer" market) but wouldn't want to use one now.
Song? 2:00 - 2:15
No idea, probably from some stock music library
