I had purchased a cheaper but nearly identical looking device to this one only to find that while I had saved a few dollars, the result was a disc that was not a true DVD image and was most likely not playable in most standard DVD players. Lesson learned. If you want a device that is easy to use and will produce a disc that will play in your DVD player without jumping through any hoops, this is your device.

I was thrilled that this was easy to hook up and use. I give it a 5 star rating with the quality of the DVDs when played on the DVD player, including good sound.....much better than the view of the 8mm cassette film through the camcorder.....and the ease of use, bypassing need for a computer to do this task. I hooked up Sony camcorder to the Sony VRD MC5 using a separate cord I bought ( FireWire Cable 4 Pin to 4 Pin Male to Male iLink DV Cable Firewire 400 IEEE 1394 Cord). I hooked a 4 pin cable connector into each machine, turned the camcorder to play, powered burner on, then one more click, and it worked well. My only learning curve was that I can not do the easy selection of just the one click button for full copy mode, because all of my 8mm cassette films are 2 hours long each. One hour of tape records on the Verbatim DVD+R blank discs I used, so half way in when the disc is full, it stops then you need to keep that spot on tape and have the remainder record to 2nd disc (which I found to work well using the Manual mode instead of full mode......there are only a few steps more to doing this, which I found instructions for in manual). Sony also makes it easy to finalize the disc, with options that display when the eject button is touched. I will certainly be recommending this product to other people I know. I am well pleased with this Sony VRD MC5, that I bought used for a good price, and it is still great!Read full review

This item is really a great tool for making a quick DVD of your old VHS Tapes. Probably more it can do....but just to capture the old VHS Tape to DVD format pretty easy,

Excellent piece of equipment to create movies from a Sony camcorder. You must have the proper cable that fit your video camera. The SD slots are used only to create picture slide shows. They will not read movie data. Must stream data from camera to DVD recorder via cables or USB. I Still think this is a great product. You can use your home computer to do the same thing, but that requires a lot of converting files. You can also download Sony Play Memories Software onto your computer or laptop, and make movies from your camcorder. I find the DVD Recorder to be my first choice.
