Well, ya know that's the manufacturers warranty. Like a fridge with a one
year warranty, lasts for 20 years and you throw it out only because it got
too ugly?
Caps are probably better than they used to be but you might want to Google
the subject if you really want something MORE to worry about....:> !!!
BTW I had a Canon HI-8 video cam in the 90's. It was a beautiful thing but
apparently, the SM caps all went bad in 2 years. At least that was the
story that one repair shop gave me; wanting $200 to replace ALL the
caps.....grrrrr.
