 Does the trick October 6, 2008
Chose not to use anything but a Sony cleaner on my Sony heads. Took a couple attempts, but took care of dropped frames. Recommend having one of these in your camera bag at all times.
Did the trick September 30, 2008
The output, both LCD and copper to my TV, displayed horizontal bars when viewing a mini DV on my Sony camcorder. After initial panic, I looked in the user guide and saw it was a symptom of a dirty head.
Running the head cleaner for 10 seconds cleared the picture and it is up and running again.
I have read on other sites that using tapes from multiple manufacturers is bad for the tape heads, and I have been using tapes from 3 different manufacturers.
Simply works August 19, 2008
Easy to use and it works. Clean the head of my Canon Optura 100MC in seconds. Good price.
Great cleaner August 5, 2008
This is a great cleaner for my Sony video camera. A more expensive generic cleaner bought at Radio Shack didn't do the job, but this one worked great.
I wish I knew this before buying a new camcorder June 30, 2008

A month ago my Canon camcorder had these blocky lines going across the view finder. I use my camcorder ALOT and had this ZR500 for over two years. I thought it was malfunctioning due to my high usage and it's age. So I brought a new one but when I stuck one of my old tapes in the new one those same old lines would show up again. NOW WAIT A MINUTE! THIS IS A NEW CAMCORDER! Since the camcorder was new I was eligible for free tech support. When I called Canon they told me that the type I used was contaminated from the old one and I needed a MiniDV cassette cleaner. They had one to sell me for over $35. No thank! So I did some research on amazon.com and saw the great reviews on this Sony cassette for half the price.
I just used it last week on both camcorders and now they both record and play back fine. Here's the caution........... all tapes that were used in the dirty camcorder prior to cleaning need to be thrown away. I noticed that when I tried to transfer the date from the miniDV to my computer the thick lines were back. So after trail and error I regrettably had to throw all the contaminated MiniDVs away. Once I cleaned the old camcorder again with this Sony cassette I used new MiniDV tapes afterwards and never tried to reply any old ones. I am happy to say that it's working good as new. Now I have two camcorders when I could have just cleaned the first one. But I learned a valuable lesson and hope others will learn from my mistake.
This tape is TOP NOTCH!
