Any cheap HDV cams capable of playing Xh-A1 tapes?
 

Hi Guys

Are any of you aware of any cheap-as-possible HDV camcorders that are compatible with the playback of XH-A1 tapes please? This would help me a great deal with capturing my material simultaneously on two different computers due to the sheer bulk of it!

Any thoughts really appreciated!

Peter

EDIT: Just spotted a Sony Handycam HDR-HC3 which seems to play back HDV - it should be compatible right?

See http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/canon-xl-...rame-mode.html -- please direct any replies to that thread (written for XL H but also applies to XH).
