The camcorder turns on, can focus, night vision works, flashlight works, and many other features tested. However something was wrong with cassette part. At first it wouldn't read the cassette and would not record. Now after opening and closing the cassette player a couple times it is stuck. So I am selling for parts as-is. Would be a perfect machine for a hobbyist who likes to repair these or another reseller who knows how to fix such machines.
