Can't go wrong with Sony
I find Sony is basically the "Gold Standard" for 8mm video. I used this player to transfer my analog Video8 and Hi8 tapes to a digital format on my computer via a UCEC Video Capture device. Fortunately, I still had a head cleaning tape left over from the late 1990's when I was still making home movies with my Sony Handycam. The play and recording heads do get dirty with extended use and need to be cleaned in order to produce a clear picture, so head cleaning is imperative. This particular unit (Sony EV-C200) really has everything I needed for playing my priceless 8mm home movies in their original quality, especially when using the S-video port which seems to produce a slightly better picture than the composite video out. Happy with the reliability and quality of this Sony player.
