Review on MiniDV Cassette Rewinder with AC Adapter - Enhanced Digital Concepts for Efficient Rewinding by Sheppard Priest

This miniDV winder was purchased from the GoShot Camera Revain Marketplace for approximately $19.86.

The top is raised by hand. Made of matte clear plastic, this top cover has a black plastic holder into which you insert miniDV tapes and then close the cover. On the top of the device is an electrical switch with two positions: REW and FF, a "START" button on the front and a small plastic "STOP" button above it.

I was able to lift the lid but I can't remove the tape from it. Strange. To eject the tape I had to remove the carriage under the cover and found that the tape's film was misaligned and stuck in an unusual way. It's currently hard to tell if the problem was with the tape (never noticed). the problem was previously with this tape) or with this unnamed rewinder. Upon closer inspection of the cassette, it was discovered that one of the hinges on the cassette's film cover was bent. It looked like a fresh break - the plastic at the point of the bend looked white.
