I have old Sony 8mm handycam from 1997. Around the millenium, it
quit working and I sent it back to SONY. After a couple weeks,
it came back in perfect working order with a bill for $200.00 and a
LONG list of parts they replaced. The repair bill was a flat rate they
quoted up front and it looks like they replaced pretty much everything.
It's been working like a top ever since and others comment on how
sharp the picture is.
