We recommend RCA cassettes be used with your camcorder. Use of poor quality or damaged tapes can contaminate the video heads, resulting in snow or no picture during playback. Head cleaning is not covered

under warranty. It is considered normal maintenance. Playing a new RCA tape for approximately 30 minutes will often satisfactorily clean the heads and improve your picture.
