I have done this, it works very good, the video looks as good as pluging directly to the TV. john
Sony digital camcorders HC46 and HC96 can convert analog to digital by connecting an 8mm analog camcorder to the Sony digital camcorder and output using firewire to a pc. Editing can then be done and burn a dvd.
Has anyone done this successfully? Is the quality from the dvd as good as connecting the 8mm analog camcorder directly to a tv?
This would help me decide on buying a new digital camcorder and convert all my Hi8 tapes to dvd.
Thanks,
Brad
