Mini DV camcorders may be on their way out, but I find that disappointing. This little unit is really small, light, and takes pretty good video. The DV recording format relies on less compression than the various MPEG systems employed by hard disk cameras, plus it leaves a record you can take out of the camera and store somewhere in case your computer or other archive methods bite the dust. While not great at low light conditions, the same can be said of even some of the most expensive digital units out there today in any format. This one is convenient and actually fun to use. You will want a back up battery as battery life is pretty limited.
I found it in a repairable state and being a camcorder repair specialist, I was able to repair it. The main problem is to find the battery to operate it. However, I am using a duplicate camera battery to operate it. Works fine.

I found the very compact MINIDV camcorder video recordings to be of mediocre quality. After researching the reviews I expected the video to be substantially good for a product from that time period but I found the quality disappointing.

great. The product was received. It is working great. All is great. This is not necessary to do. we shouldn't have to do this. I hope this is an option.
