miniDV to DVD

Dec 7, 2005 12:10AM PST

My sister wants a DVD Burner for Christmas. She has a miniDV (either Sony or Cannon, can't remember) and simply wants to take her videos from the camcorder and burn them to DVD. Can anyone recommend a good DVD Burner that will do this?
thank you.

I like the way you think... but I'm afraid she's not that technical and with me not being there probably need something extremly user friendly. Thank you for your input!

Great, thanks. I think I'll buy this one... It's pretty inexpensive. Am i sacraficing any quality. I don't mind spending more if it's going to produce something better.
thanks
