Canon EX1Hi camcorders - How do I eject tape from defunct unit?

itma — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 17:25:35 GMT

I have finally decided to sell my old dead EX1Hi (great camera for the many years it worked) but there is a tape in it. Is there any way that I can eject the tape with no power to the unit?

Thanks in advance.

I forgot to add that this is the PAL version of the L1 NTSC camcorder.

Without power, no.

Thanks, shadowsports. Though it’s not the answer I had hoped for, it was what I suspected I would hear. So, get out the crowbar and sledge hammer . . .
