Hello folks,

I stupidly played on old tape on my
SONY CCD-F355E camcorder which left
probably some residue on the control-head
since tracking has worsen and detection
of tape-speed has been failing ever since.

I once had the same problem with a very
old CCD-V8AF where I simply cleaned the
control-head and the problem would vanish
but on the newer model I cannot find one,
where does stationary control-head hide,
is it integrated in the stationary part
of the drum-assembly ??

Or was there never one in Video 8 systems ?

thanks,
Adrian
