  • Great for recovering old 8mm and Hi8 video tapes

    I bought it for just one purpose: I have some old 8mm and Hi8 video tapes (back from the analog era) that I want to transfer to computer files, e.g. avi or mp4 files, but my old Hi8 camcorder died a long time ago. I found that trying to buy an old Hi8 camcorder to do this was a little bit of trouble because all the 8mm/Hi8 camcorders are at this point very old and it's hard to find a good working one. For about the same price as a good working Hi8 camcorder, however, you may be able to find a Digital8 camcorder that can also play the old 8mm and Hi8 video tapes, so that's what I did. The bonus is that the Digital8 camcorder also has a digital out signal that you can connect to your PC to capture the video. If you get an old Hi8 camcorder it's likely to only have analog video out, so you'll have to use a analog video to DV capture card as well as the camcorder: by using a Digital8 camcorder like this one you can eliminate one more external box. For this purpose, this camcorder works very well. Do your research before you buy a Digital8 camcorder to play back old Hi8 tapes, however, because not all Digital8 models have this feature.

  • Delicate Firewire Port

    I can't comment on the recording quality yet because I haven't shot any video yet. I bought this old Digital 8 camcorder to digitize my dad's old 8mm tapes via firewire. I've had two issues that are apparently not uncommon with these Sony Camcorders. After plugging and unplugging the firewire cable maybe a dozen times one of the tiny little pins in the 4 pin firewire port on the camcorder got bent and wasn't making contact when in I would plug in the cable. With a magnifying glass, a flashlight, and a thin sewing needle I was able to bend it back enough to make it work again. The other issue was sometimes during playback the picture would start getting messed up. I don't know the technical term for it. It would start looking 'ghosty' with vertical blurring or 'ghostiness' . I found a discussion thread about this exact problem over at cnet. Others have had the same problem with various Sony 8mm camcorders. The solution is to gently tap the camcorder on top or on its side. That actually worked.
