Yashica Samurai Video 8 playback




By phloyd on Sep 03, 2007

" "
I own a Yashica Samurai Video 8, which has a problem with the playback.

I hit play and then the video plays for 3 seconds, then it stops and the 'CAUTION' light becomes lit. I have hours of home movies on this camera and would really like to see them again, as well as put them on VHS.

any help is appreciated

Hi,
If you're interested in having your video8 recordings digitized, you can check out our website at www.digisize.ca.  We offer a convenient digitizing service at an excellent price.
For your tapes, if you've tried it on several cameras, it may be that your tapes have been damaged or deteriorated with old age.  You can take them to a professional to have them cleaned and treated, but that is no guarantee that they will work thereafter, I'm afraid.
