FREE: Sony DCR-HC26 MiniDV Digital Handycam Camcorder with 20x Optical Zoom

The listing, Sony DCR-HC26 MiniDV Digital Handycam Camcorder with 20x Optical Zoom has ended.

I got this camera back in '05. used it a handful of times. and moved so many times it got lost in transition and i just found it. I loved this camera!

I have no idea how to work it anymore. I charged it up and it's working, but I'm not sure how well, I dont have any mini dv cassettes to see how well it still records. So just know.. It turns on, it seems to work, but I have not tested it out.

It comes with battery and charger. There are a couple minor dings on the casing, but the lens is scratchfree. It takes minidv cassettes that do not come with this auction. From what I remember, it took awesome movies.

You can look up the specifics on this camera on Amazon or the Sony site, as well as download (for free) any software that originally came with this camera on the Sony site.
