View Full Version : Really quick DVX firewire alternative question!

My friend just got a dvx but the firewire is busted and apart from spending 800$ on a repair, I was thinking he should just get a cheap minidv camcorder.

I was just wondering, can any regular minidv cam handle the dvx's various frame rates? cause the 24p has pulldown into regular 29.95, right?
So a camera like this would do the job, right?
Future Shop: Cameras & Camcorders: Camcorders: Samsung MiniDV Camcorder (SC-D382) (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10103916&catid=)

If not that camera, which one should he be looking at?

Thanks!

Yea, any camcorder will work.
