Amazon.com ReviewThe Hitachi VT-FX6410A offers all the essentials of a midpriced VHS VCR with the added bonus of playback compatibility with the superior S-VHS format. This unit comes packed with plenty of extras, including slow motion, single-frame advance, and a Super Index feature that allows you to quickly scan and find your favorite recorded scenes. While the Super Index feature is handy, technophobes might find it difficult to use. The feature has the potential to help you navigate directly to the beginning of taped programming but only works with tapes that have been recorded with preset index marks. Super Index is perhaps best used to preview scenes during the rewind and fast-forward process. The VT-FX6410A allows visual searching at quicker speeds than most other VCR preview features. We found this unit particularly easy to set up. Once connected, the VCR immediately begins scanning for active broadcast channels. Recording your favorite programs is also a snap. One-touch recording enables you to instantly tape your favorite TV program or preprogram the VT-FX6410A to tape up to eight shows per month. The Hitachi VT-FX6410A is a good investment for both average users and those with a passion for high-tech extras. Pros:
Auto-setup feature automatically tunes in broadcast channels VCR Plus feature allows for easy recording of programming Has S-VHS playback compatibility, which is lacking in most units Super Index feature allows for quick access to favorite scenes Cons:
High-end features can be complicated to use
