I have several 8mm tapes (more than 20) that I would like to convert to DVD, however my camcorder no longer works at all. All of the discussions that I have seen are for working cameras. Is there any way to convert these tapes without having to use the camcorder? Or is it best to purchase a used camera and go from there?
