Folks, I am sure this has been asked time and time again, so apologies :-) I know absolutley nowt about camcorders and need some advice I want o buy one to film our kids, but I dont antcipate doing much more with it than that. My max budget is £600. I have a read a "which" report that recommends the Hitachi DZ-MV350E, Canon MV600i and Sony DCR-TRV245 as "best buys".

Please I need the driver USB Driver SPVD-010 for sony minidv camcorder Thanks

Anyone know where I can buy a battery belt for my digi camera 4.5 -6.0 volt. Fed up with changing the 4 aa batteries on a shoot Thanks Johnnie Scott UK Kent

Is it possible to wirelessly transmit in real time, the video captured by a DV camera to a recorder located some distance away? That is, transmit the capture even as the camera is capturing it. I don't want to do it myself. Iimaginary documentary makers in a story I'm writing want to do it. The idea being that when the subjects of their interview become hostile and demand the tape, all is not...

Hi can anyone give advise on this problem,I bought the video camera recently and have had the same fault for all that time when I rewind and play the tapes back they become creased thus leaving oxide on the heads.I have tried TDK and Sony but the problem is the same.Any Ideas, Dave

I have some edited films on Mini DV tape and Premiere 6.5 and would like to transfer them to DVD. Can I copy the film in my camera to the DVD Burner in my PC without first transferring the film to the hard disc? Thanks and regards Fadel

I have a Sony DCR-TR7000 and I use FireWire to transfer data to PC and I use Studio 8. I capture using full DV quality. I get the edited film to DVD fine and I can watch it on TV ok, but it's missing the original date + time (when originally taped). I have tried to look from Studio settings and from Sony settings, but I have not been able to find the setting how I can get this date to display...

Hi folks. I'm currently in the process of producing a half hour piece which is formed from about 20 sequences. These sequences invariable overlap during crossdissolve transisions and so do, therefore, the audio tracks. Independantly they are normalised and don't exceed 100%

The URL below might be of interest to those who need / want more space on the 'desk top', doesn't seem that expencive either (not to mention coming in both AGP and PCI flavours)... http://www.colorgraphic.co.uk/index.html

I am a complete newcomer to the world of camcorders and would appreciate any advice. I am thinking of getting a Canon V75Hi Hi8 Camcorder purely for holidays and capturing the grandchildren. I will not be using it with my PC as this is to old to cope with the technology. Q1.....Any thoughts on my choice of Camcorder Q2...Will this camcorder connect straight to my TV or VCR...

As a newbie i would like to ask the group for advice on software for my canon mv600i, ive tried windows movis maker and thats terrible quality for putting video on my hard drive, i also tried Ulead video studio 6 and thats not user friendly at all. Is there any decent software outthere for a newbie, thanks in advance.

Hi, I had a old (like 8 years) Philips VCR which had a 'tracking' function...it could detect a tape position when you inserted it. I mean you didn't have to rewind and reset the counter, you just had to tell it what lenght the tape is, and it would show you the position. Like it's 1:23 from the beginning. This might be stupid to you, but my sales people can't find models that have that. My new 6...

I am a complete newcomer to the Camcorder scene and also getting on in years so please be kind!!! I am thinking of purchasing a JVC GR-D50 Mini DV Camcorder but need some help regarding playback to TV. There is a spare SCART socket on the TV so am I correct in assuming that I can playback via that? Secondly this PC is a HP Pavillion 8770 which I don't know that much about.I can play mini videos...

If I assemble an MPEG video which shows OK in my PC, will it also show OK in an American PC. The source of my MPEG was a compliation of PAL video clips. Or to put it another way are MPEGs Country independant - so the same file can show anywhere with a PC which can read/show MPEGs. ? Dan.

I am in the final stages of buying a camcorder in the £400 range. I have narrowed my choice to either the Sony TRV19 or the JVC GRD70. I edit most of my footage on the PC and then save it back to tape, but as both cameras have DV in that doesn't help with the decision. I see the JVC does have a low freq wind cut feature and analogue in so that could swing it that way. I used to swear by Sony...

Well, second dl in a series of which I'm missing on videotape the first few eps. Nice to not have to wait till they re-start the series in a couple of months time. But this time, ep. 2 has audio troubles. ffdshow and GSpot installed so was feeling pretty cocky with new skills I've been learning g. But second dl and right smack up against a brick wall sure cured me of that g. Anyhoo,...

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but whilst quite good on computers, I know nothing about my newly acquired Panasonic NV-GS10B camcorder. Which connector do I use to link the camcorder with my computer to transfer the recordings? There is S-Video out socket, a DV socket (which looks like a mini firewire) and a 3.5mm socket labelled 'To PC'. I had thought the latter, but according to the manual, you...

"Bob Latham" wrote in message ... Does anyone know if it is possible to connect this Canon camera and Sony DVD recorder together via (i-link IEEE1394) without something going bang? Given a suitable cable (four wire to four wire?) it should work OK, that's what i-link is for. I did once hear of someone who stuffed...

All, Had my IP7 running fine with the Sony MovieShaker (crap) and also with Pinnacle Studio 8.8 some time ago, however I tried to load MovieShaker onto 2 different XP machines today, and all that happens is it hangs on start up and just cits there eating all the CPU. Anyone know if there is a patch for XP for this piece of software ? Or any known way to make it work with XP ?

I am using a Pentax Optio S4 digital stills camera to shoot video clips. I can import video files from my S4 into MM2 no problem. I can play back the files perfectly in MM2, Windows Media Player and Real Player. The problem is that when I drag a file to the Storyboard in MM2, while the picture remains perfect, the sound becomes totally corrupted.
