I have the Sharp VC-S2000HM - which cost me £250 back in 2000/20001, it was made in the UK (which was a bit unusual)
The 3D Digital Noise Reduction ( plus included TBC) is really very very good, and on a par with the Panasonic NV-HS1000, if not better IMHO, the NV-HS1000 was not very reliable and finally just died
I cleaned the video head drum this morning with IPA and copy paper ( now that the IPA has arrived from
Amazon)

I partner the VC-S2000 with another British manufactured product from GTH Electronics, made by a brilliant engineer local to me in Ipswich, this TBC was also £250 at the time, this was the best ever £500 I have spent - as both of them are still working great together
