Hi all.
Can anyone tell me what I need to transfer video from this camcorder to my
hard disk and (hopefully) from there to a DVD? In terms of hardware,
software, cables, ports, etc etc?

I have read (am reading) the instruction book but it isnt as clear as I'd
like and I thought I'd see if anyone could help me in plain English.

Thanks.
Nat

Thank you, Tony, the fog begins to clear. I now need to buy a Firewire card
and cable. (or at least find the money to do so!)
Cheers

If my experience is anything to go by, I fear the money for a Firewire card
and cable will be the least of your worries! Have fun!

Should come to about a tenner, fifteen quid with P&P (max).

1 How about a new large fast HDD?
2 Stable video editing application?
3 Major system upgrade?
4 Creativity & Inspiration!

So far I've got #1. Am still looking for an affordable #2, and I've had
quotes for #3 in the hope of solving #2.
#4, I guess will always elude me.

OK...
1. 60GB? Is that enough?
2. Umm..what do you recommend?
3. Not even an option! Next year, maybe, if my new job comes off. At the
moment no!
4. These two I'll have to work at, not being arty at all.

Thanks for the input, it's good to know others have been here before.
Nat.
