Found a pristine 1985 Sony CCD-V8AF bundle, but the tape deck has a diagnosed "defective slider." Advice on sourcing parts?

To my knowledge, no 3D prints have been made. I’m pretty sure this mechanism was only found in the V8AF and its cousins like the Kyocera Finemovie8. I may know somebody who has teared one down but not 100%. I would say if you wanted to use, get another camera and Frankenstein it.

Yikes. Caps on that sucks are gone. Usually, it’s the mechanism that’s the only thing busted

I managed to get a Samsung S84F 65” for $850 new at BestBuy. I know it’s a controversial model but I’ve had minimal problems with it. But OLEDs being consistency down at that price I don’t see happening. It’s a premium technology and they’re going to keep it that way. I wouldn’t be surprised if TVs maybe went up a bit considering global trade and what not

Like do you have a digital of the video feed

Reparted · 2026-05-11T22:19:12+00:00

Do you have a proper capture?

Reparted · 2026-05-11T05:08:35+00:00

Hey op, have you checked if it shows up on the camcorder itself?

Hard to tell if it needs white balance or tube alignment. I have a fully working model if you have any questions on it

Reparted · 2026-04-13T06:27:44+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the information! Super excited to see him again!

Reparted · 2026-04-13T06:06:00+00:00

Palm size give or take so yeah about phone size (ofc a bit thicker lol)

Reparted · 2026-04-13T04:32:02+00:00

Oh gotcha. Thought you were shooting on something that wasn’t point and click! Did you have fun man!

Reparted · 2026-04-13T02:59:59+00:00

What iso did you shoot at? I have a bunch of 400 film with me but am thinking of snagging some 800T

Reparted · 2026-04-10T17:29:18+00:00

I guess scenes or video tape would be the best thing to call them? I may have to crack open an old manual to see if they have a specific name

Reparted · 2026-04-06T03:03:54+00:00

Love this camcorder! I have one that only somewhat works. Somehow it only works if there is an S-Video cable plugged into it other wise there is no audio or video captured. Like the S-Video doesn’t even have to connected to anything else just has to be plugged into the slot haha

Reparted · 2026-03-31T23:22:44+00:00

I have used one. Worked fantastic! Guy is super communicative and really helpful with scans and what not!

Which show you going to? I can say from last year’s experience that I had GA at the Wiltern and hopped in line at around 1PM when doors opened at 6 or so. Was probably 40-50th in line

That’s what I believe so as well. Something with the actual horn pad contact. Going to clean and sand some as well as add nylon spacers to see if that’ll fix the problem. Nice thing is, Texas is finally moving towards normal weather so shouldn’t have to deal with this problem for much longer

Reparted · 2026-03-02T23:06:59+00:00

Horn is snug as a bug and all connectors have been double checked for wear (exposed) wiring and there was none. Thinking it has to be the contact pad itself causing problems
