Old Vhs Camcorders
How can I play this VHS tape?
I have a VHS-C tape – panasonic/SHG and I NEED to play it somehow – as soon as humanly possible, but I do not have any cam corder that plays is. The only option i have right now is to take it to this place where they transfer it to a DVD but that will take 3 to 4 weeks! Another option I have is buying a used cam corder that plays this off of craigslist or something but I’m not about to buy a used cam corder just to play this ONE tape.
I also thought of going to electronic stores just to play it over there but they don’t sell camcorders that old any more because people stopped making them.
Does any one have any ideas whatsoever of how I can get this tape played!! All inpiuts greatly appreciated!
If you have a working VHS VCR you can get an adapter like these at Best Buy:

which will make VHS-C cassettes playable in standard VHS VCRs.
There are also a lot of them available for less than $10 on ebay.
