IR is cool:
I like the IR on this. I only gave 3 stars for Picture Quality only for cpature to Computer. There is a loss of color.

But about 1/4 of the takes have a horizontal banding, indicating a problem with the tape drive. My older Sony camera (I think a PC-100; it was made in 2000) took much rougher treatment with no problems, and, frankly, still has better picture quality.
