Sony CCD-FX230 Video8 Camcorder from 1994

Here is yet ANOTHER camcorder video about an older type from the Video8 days. I traded my Insignia pocket camcorder for this one, which I feel was good because I hardly ever used the Insignia after getting the HDR-CX150 to replace it.

Nice vintage camera. Neat that it is working after cleaning video heads. Very nice collectable.

@AllAmericanFiveRadio I guess this makes me a camera collector :) You know very well I have a thing for "vintage" equipment!

I have one like this but I don't have the adapter/charger. I only have a 6V DC. Where shall I plug it?

You know I like this video8 camera even better than the hi8's and the s-vhs

The Cam I wanna get so bad is the Sony HDR.CX700V, bcs it has Nightshot™, and is just amazing. Check out @Blunty3000 for the review. But it costs $1200.

And the second best at $1000 is the HDR-CX560V. And the HDR-XR160 bcs it has 42x zoom! That's just amazing. And it's at only $600. But no Nightshot™.

Still, they all shoot at 1080/60p.

And most cameras shoot 1080/60i, or 1080/30p.

But I'm getting the Sony DSCHX100.
