Canon NTSC 2R45/Worth it?

I've got an opportunity to get a 2r45 for $200.00. Is it a deal? My son wants something for video's of skate boarding. Will it suffice?

Moved here by me. I know "Question Time" seems like a place to ask questions, but it's actually a place for debate on political issues, current affairs, etc, like the (UK) TV program of the same name, and as per the forum description. So I've moved this here - it's more likely to get a suitable response.
