Something on topic for us. My Sony DCR-PC9 has a fault, and I may or may not be getting it repaired, depending on a number of variables. So I pondered about what I could replace it with, and tried to have a look at the market. It's amazing the number of sites that list out of production models and the like. I want:-

Hi, anyone who has discovered how to connect to the internet via a pc with internet connection sharing yet?

Hi there, I am now looking to buy a DVD writer, it appears that there is a wealth of drives around in the £80 bracket. I have narrowed my choice down to the sony drive http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=52123 Has anyone had any bad experience of this drive and its compatability with Vegas DVD architect etc....

Which tape should l use for digital 8 camcorders? normal 8, hi 8 or digital 8 and is there much difference in performance and how about difference in performance between lp and sp?

We've just upgraded our Liquid Edition tutorials. It's now a 2 DVD set and you'll receive all the media clips (video, music, graphics) that we used throughout the lessons. This way you can practice on your own system using the same files we used to create the tutorials. We are not going to increase the price of the program. It's still $99.95 and we've just revamped our Web page to describe...

Whats the best software to use to import DV ffrom Camera Through Firewire on an Apple Mac G4 any sugestions would be greatfull PS can you mount Your camera as a drive -- : The Comp : Feed me Wierd Things

Has anyone here got the Sony DCR-TRV950 ? if so can you tell me if it has got the *colour slow shutter* function ?, *similar I presume to the Panasonics colour night view* on the Panasonic NV-MX500 (PV-DV953 in the USA). Quite a few websites say the Sony DCR-TRV950 has colour slow shutter, but after downloading the manual for it I can find no mention of it listed !.

Here is the question, I have taken old surf footage from a high 8 and an analogue 8 camera and recorded it to DV on my sony vx2000 (for some reason the camera would not do a pass through conversion even with AV-DV out on). I then fired it all into the computer and used Vegas 4 to construct the final edit. It all looks fine under the preview window. Now here is the problem, when I print to...

I recall an earlier posting from someone thinking of purchasing one of these. Anyone used one? Is it any good? What was the resulting footage like? Mezza

My Panasonic DS60 is only a few months old and I filmed about 15 hours. Now it doesn't recognize the cassettes anymore in the camera position. It shows a 'cassette with a stripe thru it' symbol and beeps 3 times: 2 short beeps at a time. Also it doesn't 'see' where the timecode is. In vcr mode however, it just plays the cassettes without any problem. Does anybody have an idea what this could...

Hi Folks This is my first post here, so here goes.... I have a JVC GR-DX100 camcorder which is capable of analogue imput. Unfortunately the cable that is required for this isn't shipped with the unit and has to be purchased separately. Can anyone give me details/specs of such a cable and maybe where one can be purchased (on the net if possible)....

I've been looking to buy one of these for my wife, but have discovered that they are being discontinued and replaced by the E55 (out in mid-March, no price yet). One supplier said there had been problems with this model, hence the withdrawal. Does anyone know if they have given problems? I've got the E60 (had it about 5 weeks) and I'm now wondering if it will go the same way as the E50. I'm...

A friend of mine was wondering if this camcorder is any good & if so how does it compare to others in its class. Thanks.

In the year 2002/2003: Violent crime rose 36% in North Wales.. Detection rates for violent offences fell from 82% to 64%. In April 2003, just 18 out of 296 burglaries in North Wales were cleared up — 6.1% — and the lowest rate ever recorded. Only 41 of 693 vehicle crimes were solved.

I was asked to show some of our DV of an amateur Shakespeare perfomance. We played it through a projector borrowed from a local school (I think the projector was an expensive one). The result was amazing. I daresay all you guys have been there, done that but it was a revelation to me. What I am wondering is whether a projector in the £800 price bracket would be any good, or should we stick...

3CCD model - I am pleased with the Panasonic GS70, recently acquired. VG picture and sound - and performance so far in low light no problem. Some claim Sony is better in low light but I have no experience. Handling good - resembles a proper camera rather than a cigarette packet. Stabiliser could be better. Met two other criteria: i) not bottom loading and had a shoe for a mike/lamp.

hiya, because of my recent success with making dvd's from my digital camcorder i decided to branch out. i've got lots of old family movies on vhs tape so i thought it would be a good idea to put them on dvd. so........... i bought a gadget called a "usb instant dvd" from pc world made by a company called ads technologies.

I thought my pc was working ok until I came to capture some more camcorder footage and I would not have it. PC Spec:- 120Gb H/D 2.6g amd pro 768mb ram Win XP Pro Ulead VideoStudio 7
