i oedered this product because it was paired with the canon dc230. It is not compatible and should've not been paired with the camera.

My canon camcorder model dc10 cannot initialize any of the discs. I went to test out the sony handyman mini dvd-r and found no problem. I'm not certain whether it's the dvd-rw format that my camcorder does not recognize or whether this pack of memorex dvd-rw is incompatible with my canon. In either case, I can't return the disc to get any reasonable refund since it has been opened. The 10 pack gets a 1 star for cheap price although useless in my case.

so i buy my parents this brand new Canon mini-dvd camcorder for Christmas and look for some mini-dvds on amazon for them to record on. i figure, what the heck, they don't need RW discs, but why not go for quality ones the first time around (as opposed to mini-dvd+r). my parents are excited about this gift and we pop in the discs to start recording, but the thing can't read the discs for some reason. i read the back of the dvd package and it says some formatting may be required. so i pop the disc into my computer and try to format it, but my computer can't read the discs as well. i just bought some mini dvd-R's and my parents will be getting it soon. i'm pretty sure the camcorder itself wasn't the problem, but if it turns out to be the case, i'll re-evaluate this product. but for now, it's no good.

I do not know how well these DVD's work.
I ordered them because they were suggested on the page when I purchased the Sony DCR-DVD610 DVD Handycam Camcorder with 40x Optical Zoom.
However, they DO NOT work with the sony camcorder.
We even called sony and they said these mini dvd's were made differently than the sony mini dvds...so we just use the sony mini dvds.

Im sure these work just fine for other things though.

Eventhough recommendation to use SONY disc always appear on the screen whenever your DVDcam turned-ON, it can used to record my important moments anyway,... and it's work also on my DVD player for watching the result with whole family. Excellent product.
