Less wear on heads
We have a xl2 and use a less expensive cam to transfer file to PC. If we get the XLH1 hd version can I still use the sd cam to transfer, or does it have to be hd?

Re: Less wear on heads
It will need to be either a XLH1, XHA1 or an HV30 (series of cameras). Most people used to buy an HV camera; though seemingly the wear and tear on the heads was never as bad as people were led to believe.
You could also get something to record from the HD/SDI of firewire cable as you are recording to tape (like a firestore or datavideo dn-60 for the firewire, or a nanoflash or samurai for the HD/SDI). |

Thank you so much for your help.. So if understand it must be a HD cam to up load HDV tape to My PC and NOT a SD cam

Re: Less wear on heads
Imo grab a Canon HV40 before they disappear altogether, doubles as a B cam as well.
Read the reviews .. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/597424-REG/Canon_3686B001_VIXIA_HV40_High_Definition.html Cheers. |

The HV40 is the current Canon minimalist HDV camcorder, it replaced the HV30 in their line a couple years ago. The Canon HDV signal is 1440x1080. Some HDV machines may be 720p and not understand the Canon recording. |
