Q&A
Questions & Answers
Shopper : where can i find the instructions for this cleaner ?JAMES V : Simple, just play the cleaner for 8 seconds and stop. That is how you clean your heads with this tape cleaner. Once it stops playing you are out of head cleaner. You need to buy another head cleaner.
Anil K : HOW TO CHANGE MODE TO RECORD OF THE TAPE ?SAMUEL S : This tape is for cleaning only and should not be used for recording. Cleaning the DVC heads improves camera performance since they collect dirt over time.KIRIT B : To clean the head with MINI DV Head Cleaner you do not need to record anything. Insert the cleaning tape and PLAY the tape for 10 seconds. The head is cleaned.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?TANASHAE D : It's always been my experience to not try and clean your heads and other internal parts by hand. I have not actually used this yet (no need), but purchased to have on hand to clean cameras when they are ready for cleaning. I am sure that Panasonic has put their all into their product.

I would buy this product every time
I still do a lot of work on tape and I stick to one brand in order to protect the VCR heads in my camcorder. Panasonic has never let me down.

Removed lines appearing during playback
I was asked to use a professional mini DV camera that had been sitting for two years in a high dust environment (horse stables). After 2.5 hours of filming the playback had several lines of blank data (distortion). I ordered the Panasonic Head Cleaner hoping this would remedy the situation. All online research said the camera would require professional cleaning and a tune-up, this camera does not have the ability to adjust the heads. I followed the directions and ran ten seconds of cleaner. During playback the majority of distortion was corrected. One more ten second run and everything cleared up. My only con is the print is less than six font.

Best priced head cleaner around
Can't beat the price on this. Local camera stores and [@] sell this for [$]! Don't waste your time and money. GO TO ADORAMA!!!

The best deal out there
My canon XH-A1s started displaying a "heads need cleaning" message. This little tape fixed it up right away. A quick, easy and inexpensive solution.
