Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony DVC Cleaning Tape
Customer Review: It works.
Summary: 5 Stars
My JVC GR-DVL920U indicated that the heads needed cleaning after 50 hrs of recording and hundreds more on playback. That said, I popped the Sony MiniDV cleaner tape, played it for 10 sec. per instruction and the indication went away. I only use the brand name tapes (e.g. JVC, Sony, Maxell,& TDK) which probably accounts for why I haven't had any problems with either the unit or this cleaning tape. If you use the really cheap tapes, they tend to mess up the heads even after cleaning just because of the residue they leave behind.Customer Review: Great Price and Fast Delivery

I have a Canon Elura 100 video camera. I have never thought about cleaning the heads. I bought this Sony head cleaner and put it in the camera. It only takes seconds to clean the heads. My video camera is still going good. I checked prices of head cleaners, and this was the best price. Honestly I couldn't find head cleaners for my video camera. I tried Best Buy, Circuit City, Staples, Wal-Mart. I called Canon and you can buy the Sony head cleaner for about 1/3 of the price on Amazon. Good price and fast delivery.Customer Review: Head cleaner cassette works
Summary: 5 Stars
Although tape may seem to be dead or dying with the advent of flash and hard drive memory cameras and systems. The use of DV tape is still alive and well and still used in the professional industry. This Sony head cleaner cassette is an asset. And is best with Sony camcorders, DV player/recorders and other camcorders. We use this cleaner when tapes have been sitting for some time and could cause head clogs from the oxide flaking off. So Keep one on hand to be prepared. Sony makes a great product.Customer Review: Review of Sony MiniDV cassette

This product works great. No problems. Unfortunately it did not arrive in time for me to use it before I went on vacation, which I needed to so I could use my video camera. The company said it was on back order, but was not told that until after I inquired myself as to why the product was not here on time. so I actually had to pay triple because I had to go to a store and buy another one that cost 3 times a much as the one on line. So I was a little disappointed at that.Customer Review: 10 Second Solution - Highly Recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
The video playback on my Canon Elura 100 camcorder just stopped working. Playback behaved like the tape was blank. I tried multiple prerecorded tapes, but no playback on any of them.
I ordered the Sony because of the reviews and the price was very reasonable, especially compared to the Canon head cleaner which was about 3 times the cost.
I ran the Sony head cleaner 1 time for 10 seconds, and to my relief the camcorder playback was restored.
