I have an ancient camcorder, a Sony CCDTR420E. My battery just died, and Sony tell me they no longer stock the battery (NP-33). I've found on the net of people who will rebuild the battery (http://www.nicdlady.com) and of companies which stock compatible batteries, but no such luck in India. Any suggestions? May camera works fine which is why I am reluctant to throw it away!
I only use my JVC camcorder on occassion. I have only had it for about 6 months and would try to prevent shelling out money for batterys on a prematurely. If people have tips on how to maintain and extend the usage of a camcorder, it would be greatly appreciated.
