Summary: SCL860 Palmcorder is Great!

Comment: This is great for home movies or recording special moments!! I think that the only bad thing about it is how little time there is on the tape. Anyways, I love all of the settings and features, and it is so easy to handle!! Woo!!

Summary: I had a deception

Comment: I buy a Samsung SCL-860 and I hoped to can use on a PAL VCR, but when I try to record on my VCR with PAL60 features I had a real deception because my recording is black and white. What can I do now?

Summary: great camcorder

Comment: I have had this camcorder for about a year. I have not had any trouble with it. I take it to the drag races with me. With the great zoom I can record the cars all the way to the end of the quarter mile track. The battery life is great. It recharges quickly. This is a great camcorder at a great price. It's really easy to operate. I would recommend it highly.

Summary: good item

Comment: I think this is a great camcorder for someone on a tight budget, but I don't like the fact that there is no cartridge to play the Hi-8 tape in the vcr there is a cord you hook your camcorder to the vcr with and use the camcorder almost as a vcr to play the tapes and you hae to record the Hi-8 on to a vhs from your vcr in order to not have to use your camcorder. The only good part about that is that you can use the Hi-8 tape as many times as you need to and then jsut record it on to a vhs and reuse the Hi-8 tape.

Summary: Qns

Comment: Do you know how to reposition the tape after record and subsequent playback? I did it manually but there is a gap (or noise) in between two vedio recordings. I know sony has 'end search' function which reposition the head to end of last recording so that the next vedio doesn't show any gap from. Can you do that in SCL 8600? Other than this function I found this product very nice.
