This is an anon iVIS HV20, a high-definition/DV video camera.
It works perfectly fine.
The exterior shows relatively little wear and tear.

Included accessories are the original remote control, AC adapter (also a battery charger), original battery, component cable, and instruction manual.
As a bonus, I'm including an i-Link = IEEE1394 4-pin to 6-pin gold-plated cable and a DV head cleaner.

I used it to capture old DV and HDV tapes to my PC.
The tapes themselves were mini DV tapes recorded with a Sony DCR-PC7 and HVR-HC3, and I was able to capture them without any problems via the DV cable.
Windows has a lot of software available, and I used freeware like WinDV and HDVLink (DV and HDV each have separate apps, and I personally recommend fixing the camera settings).
I've heard that iMovie can be used on a Mac, but I haven't been able to verify this as I don't have the necessary adapters.

Of course, the camera itself is also working, and I've confirmed that it can record and play back without any issues, even with a short check.
The lens also looks clean.

I've captured dozens of tapes, and there were no issues at all, no unusual noises or tape problems, and it was working very smoothly.

Capturing DV tapes was completely problem-free.
For HDV tape playback, some tapes were sensitive to condition, such as those that had been overwritten several times, but they were 100% restored after running the cleaner tape for about 5 seconds, so I don't think there are any problems with this either.

I'm not sure if this can be called a defect, but the closing force of the LCD screen, or the power to close it tightly, feels a little weak. It opens smoothly at first, but then it opens with a quick snap. From the middle, it grips firmly, so it doesn't flap open when it's open, and I don't think there are any situations where it would be a concern, but I'll mention it just in case.

This is a tape video camera, so I can't provide support, so I recommend it to those who can manage to use it on their own.
