Query: Do not waste your money

We bought this camcorder in 2004 when it first came out. Seemed like a decent deal at the time. First problem, have lens adapter to put additional lenses on it but can't screw them on b/c of the way the cd portion is shaped. Second and BIGGEST problem: CCD DIED. 2 years old. Used maybe 5 or 6 times. Worst use of $800 I've ever had. Now it is off warranty and Sony wants $211 to fix it. And no, it is NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AS THE 200 MODEL IS. Same problem according to the website pictures of the 200 model recall information. My camera says it was manufactured in April 04. The recall only covers until MARCH 04. After reading the other reviews on data loss, we will have to seriously consider whether we choose Sony or not. I've had issues with Sony in the past (over Trinitron parts and cost of repair), and apparently some things have not changed with that company. If I could give it ZERO stars I would.
