Well, I DID list is as a DVCAM deck. This is a pro deck-if you're doing
video on a shoestring and using your cheap camera as a deck, this unit is
not for you. I have used it since new with both formats and BOTH size tapes
and it has worked flawlessly. The only irregularities I have had is the
difference of recording rate of the locked audio in DVCAM mode and DV and
afaik this is only a problem when trying to play these tapes back in a
VX1000-which you wouldn't do anyway. Used as a feeder deck to my computer it
is great-fast, efficient and accurate. I also have used it to back up my DV
tapes to the much longer playing 184 minute DVCAM tapes. One just sold the
other day for $2400. This one is better and can be had for less.

So if you need a good deck, please buy mine- I need to support my antique
toy habit ;)
