Digital camera reviews of Panasonic PlayPak PV-P1 VHS/VHS-C Adaptor

Digital camera Review: Couldn't find it anyplace
Summary: 5 Stars

I have a VHS and CD machine and all my old tapes from my old camera are VHS, so I really need this adapter. Best Buy had a cheap copy that I bought and it didn't work at all...Bernies didn't have it or know where to purchase one. I then thought of Amazon and was delighted to find just what I wanted shippped directly to my house and it worked just the way the old one did....just remember to take the battery out if you don't plan on using it for a while....that's what happened to me and the battery caroded in the battery compartment.....

Digital camera Review: DOA and Wrong Product
Summary: 1 Stars

I ordered this to play my Hi-8 video cassettes in a VCR, but it appears my product is DOA, it does nothing. I tried different batteries and still nothing. After a little more research, it appears I have the wrong product anyways. Just another slap in the face.

Digital camera Review: Does what it's supposed to.
Summary: 5 Stars

This adapter is much better than the ones which don't take a battery. The difference is the other type manually pulls out the tape with a set of rollers when it's closed, and that can screw the tape up. The battery model I believe is also better at rewinding, the manual ones always drag down my VCR when I've tried it in the adapter.

For the reviewer below, they don't make 8mm adapters. Vhs-C is nothing more than a small-scale VHS tape, which is why they can make these adapters. The best way to get 8mm tapes copied on VHS tapes is to use the camcorder as a tape deck and connect it to a VCR's input, and record it from there.

Digital camera Review: Easy way to play compact VHS tapes
Summary: 5 Stars

This item replaced my previous PV-P1 adapter that had locked up years ago. The last one I owned was about 10yrs old when it died and I liked it so much I bought another one. Thankfully Panasonic still makes these. I am using it to transfer compact VHS to my imac using a Pinnacle video capture kit.

Digital camera Review: Excellent adaptor for VHS-C video tapse
Summary: 5 Stars

I had one of these adaptors that got broken years ago. What a wonderful surprise to find that it was still being made! Works great for those compact videos you haven't seen in years.
