camcorder/deck for SD video
Hey guys my JVC HR-DVS2 deck is about tore up.
I'm wanting to replace it with something low cost to get me by for a little while. I am needing to be able to play and record SD 4:3 and 16:9 to this deck through firewire. The Sony DCR-HC28 Mini DV Camcorder ($189 at B&H) I believe will do what I need but wanted to get ya'lls expert opinion. So what would ya'lls choice be on a cheap deck/camera? Thanks Brad |
There isn't really a cheap deck. The DSR-11 retails for ~$1800 and can be obtained used for ~$1100....

Thanks for your reply but that's more machine than I need for just SD video. Got to have something lower cost so I can buy some other things too. ha ha

using a camcorder like the one you mentioned (or most all camcorders for that matter) you'll realize they aren't designed for such a thing because the transports are just doga**'d slowww and most of the time can't find preroll and/or in points. You'll forget about trying to batch & just do straight captures. Then again, if you don't need batch capability, then my point is moot. |
