The only exception to the above response is where you've recorded in
LP - in which case a recorded LP tape is only guaranteed to replay
properly in the *same* camcorder that it was recorded in (i.e. Not
make model, but individual camcorder).

Why is that? What is it about LP that makes it less than ideal?

I have no idea *why* - just that it *is*. It may play, but it is likely
to be noisy even if it does replay in another camcorder. If you have a
look at your camcorder manual, chances are that it will tell you so
there. Also, in-camcorder dubbing cannot be done with LP recorded tapes.
And Sony recommend that if you *do* use LP, you only use Sony Excellence
or Sony Master tapes.
