Customer Reviews

S-Video works BOTH directions (play or record)
This cable works fine for my Sony DCR-DVD403 Handycam. I can play and record in S-Video with this cable. The key is to change the setting in the camera so that it uses S-Video instead of the default composite video connection. I found this in my Handycam's user manual.

It works exactly as it should. Perhaps this is not the case for all Sony Handycams.

Replacement Cord
SONY has manufactured their cord with a propreitary connection so that you have to order directly from them. Most cords can be purchased for about $7 locally in stores but SONY's has to be ordered. Amazon had the best price on this item and it works great but it is annoying that you have to purchase a SONY original part.

My Review of the Sony VMC15FS AV Cable
The Sony VMC15FS AV Cable is a very nice cable that is used on several Sony Camcorders. My Camcorder is the Sony DCR-HC28. This cable allows you to transfer Audio and Video from the camcorder to your VCR, TV, or an external DVD Recorder. This cable may do more things that I am not aware of as I have never used the "S" cable that is part of this cable.

The Sony VMC15FS A/V Cable for most Sony MiniDV & DVD Camcorders does the same thing that the Sony 18231661 AV Cable does plus it has an S-video cable added to it.

I have both the Sony 18231661 AV Cable and the Sony VMC15FS A/V Cable. Both cables are great but if I had to choose it would depend on if I used the "S" cable portion of the Sony VMC15FS A/V Cable and if I did I would pick the Sony VMC15FS A/V Cable.

If I didn't use the "S" cable I would pick the Sony 18231661 AV Cable. I have both cables and recommend both cables.
