Frage von na2851:


Hello
my 4 years old camcorder DCR-TR8000E is unfortunately broken and I need a new one. Unfortunately, the newer models are less able and less in quality. so I'm looking for a used, but do not know which digitizes analog footage during the transfer with Firewire OLD. Who knows?

Which Sony camcorder converts analog Hi8 and Video8 - BEFORE shots
Dubbing via Firewire in order of DIGITAL signals?
A similar Amfrage at Sonyblieb unfortunately unanswered.

Thanks for your answers

Antwort von Markus:

Hello,

all the Digital8 camcorders, analog Video8 and Hi8-tapes can play, convert the analog signals before output to via Firewire into digital data. Firewire is indeed a pure digital interface. Not everyone, however, D8 camcorders can playback analog tapes.

The devices of the first series were still all (myself another DCR-TRV310 who participates so many holiday). A list of previous D8 models you find in the article



Antwort von na:

Hi Mark,

I have been a seller at Media Markt very confusing information. He has claimed that the 480 to play the Video8 and Hi8 tapes ONLY ANALOG on RCA and S-VHS outputs could, and that can be transferred via firewire only original digital recordings.
And besides, the 480 was the only camera at all, still Hi8
- But only by analogy --
could play.

Can there be something to it s.diesen information or the seller had simply too little knowledge?

na



Antwort von Markus:

Hello, "na"

I just saw that you thread your question synonymous s.den "Hi8 / Digital8"
To my knowledge, all the Digital8 camcorders, analog Video8 and Hi8-tapes can play in a position to spend Picture and sound synonymous digitally via Firewire. Only such a device for the D8-old Video8 and Hi8-filmmaker makes sense now switching over to the non-linear video editing s.PC.



Antwort von na:

Hello Mark
then you do so synonymous that the seller simply had too little knowledge.
I just want to be sure before I spend so much money that the 480 will actually synonymous my Hi8 Cassette DIGITAL dubbed.
Then fact remains is this one left out there ever buy again.
I'm just mad at Sony, that allow you to build the new camcorder in worse quality than the old 5 years ago.
My old 8000E had as 25x zoom, and had 800000pixels. And she could just once synonymous HI6 digital dubbing.
But do you mean the 480 can be synonymous. Good.

And something else: throw out all my old cassette. That's all that is broken. Did you mean I can from the VCR via analog RCA, input a VHS video camera and write it into the dub SIMULTANEOUSLY same video digitally in real time via firewire to the PC?

Thanks for the tips

cu and nice greetings

hm .. so far could still any Digital8 camera I had in my fingers V8 or Hi8 uf the Firewire output. Ggf. this is a setting in the menu needed AV-DV or something like that.

So far all synonymous D8-established external sources to DV Convert - so it Easily connect a VCR s.The Camera and make one analog / digital conversion (important), only the menu item. Whether that still synonymous with the current models it is, I can not say - pure theory, which only the menu item bäuchten AV-DV and take out .... already had 2 models .... of which one would sell them more expensive.

As regards Seller: They usually do not know - although there was hardly any difference to Jupiter, Saturn seller to "Specialists" - Seller is - as with advocates a technician working there one does not .... and vendors ... tja ... are the most studied Seller halt ... and almost never specialists.

Definitely yes.

Check out only on how many people have aligned their purchasing behavior for 'stinginess is cool "and" I'm not stupid "(... so much money to spend). And then look times here in the forum for posts such as "camcorder sought a maximum of 300 ¬.

Unfortunately, the prices upward quite a bit next to bottom are rotated to achieve the product quality to absolute zero, and the devices have the character of disposable articles. So it's not just Sony's fault that the camcorder in a double sense always "cheaper" to be, but the companies get priority in the revised purchasing behavior of consumers.

Myself annoyed by the synonymous. In the past (yes yes, everything was better ;-) did not buy every Trot ... a camcorder. They were not getting that is of 1800 DM. Furthermore, they needed to start your hobby into your video into easily cut (S) VHS VCR with hi-fi stereo sound (s.1.800 DM for VHS, SVHS about 3,000 DM) and a video processor (s.600 DM), or better still a video mixer (s .2.000 DM). For the latter were synonymous a sectional control and a further sense Setter ...

And now, again: "I have a PC that is synonymous quite well, and now I'm looking for a camcorder with sharp picture-and sound quality for a maximum of 300 ¬. Surpassing 280 ¬." ;-(

A camcorder can only walk of analog to digital, if it has a converter function. In the contribution "Hi8 / Digital8"
"Hi8 / Digital8""stonee" wrote: [Beitrag "Hi8 / Digital8"]"Hi8 / Digital8"Cameras of the second series have the advantage that can be synonymous Analog -> DV unlock. So you can connect a video signal into the camera and copy it via IEEE1394 (Firewire) to PC. "Hi8 / Digital8"
I unlocked my TRV310 (first series) synonymous, but A / D convert-she can not. For this, I've a separate A / D converter of Canopus. :-)

The TRV480 does not have an A / D converter function?

my "old" DCR 110E can synonymous, but only because I was one of those long synonymous set DV IN - Freischaltsets had bought.

Unfortunately, I can then just add, if I have installed eg Vegas, has since the start of the control equipment synonymous a "record" button while, and then can ...

someone knows a tool that can control the synonymous, without me Vegas every time I need to reinstall it?

Antwort von Jan:

Hello you,
we do not want to ask again the old about to begin (Media-Saturn), there are always black sheep and synonymous quite a good seller / expert shall be synonymous times on the wrong foot. I have learned in the shop and am synonymous with Saturn for 4 years, synonymous, I know not all guaranteed.
Seen from a time in Mark (I admire him as a very very competent, and can do a lot of him or get to Luke eg Schaufler.) Synonymous He said that there are no current models 2005. There you are, unfortunately, only a model with 8-Hi 8 video playback. I'd give you right, that there should be no problem with spending the Sonyden old 8 mm film via Firewire, a transducer is indeed built into the action.
At least to my knowledge, in the 480th TRV
Good You are right that many Saturn Media Buyer (a few years ago) zb. claimed that the films are dubbed Mini DV via USB! In Videoaktiv was digitally recently that the seller could see into the future!

Everything is good

January

First Thanks for the compliment. :-))

I had used the Web site of Sony (www.sony.de) as the source of my information. Some days there were long only MiniDV - and Hi8-listed devices. I concluded that D8 (as synonymous MicroMV) had expired. Fortunately, that was a mistake and that Page may have been just waiting, for now stands back in the Digital8 program. Luckily, in my opinion, because D8 is a successful invention. Especially if you like me for many years, Video8 and Hi8 was filmmaker! :-)



Antwort von GhostDog:

@ Hannes:

Thanks for the proggys .... now I'm back in my dv-set of the time found, and since I still have the plug for the lanc jack for the PC and the LPT1.
And on this diskette was / is such a little proggy, which simply gave up the instrument-only condition, and just the camcorder via the lanc interface control could, just synonymous to the "record" button.

Unfortunately, the proggy funzt under win2k up any more, because the NT-compatible ", with the built-in win xp compatibility function klappts unfortunately, not synonymous.

But just a little program I would look for, or you can program that quickly? lol

thank you!

Hello,

I'm new here, but more recently, the DCR-TRV 480E. This is my first Digital Camera and I opted for Digital8 to my old tapes to save Hi8/Video8. I do not know older Digital8 cameras and therefore can not judge whether they were or are better. With the 480E, I for one am fully satisfied. Because of the Resolutionvon 540,000 pixels, I'm not worried because before only about 300,000 pixels are used for the digitization of analogue lines and lines of material. The remaining pixels are used to image stabilization, when switched on.

The converter features:
The 480E can play Hi8/Video8 and when it is connected via Firewire s.PC, the tape directly converted to DV-AVI. The quality is excellent.

The analog output is synonymous while an analog input. There is a menu item s.der Camera (touch screen), since you can switch between input and output.

When the camera is connected via Firewire s.PC and connected at the same time an analog source s.der camera, the camera can record the analog signal directly into DV-AVI on the plate. The tape drive remains off and protected. But you can capture analog synonymous to the tape.

All features are enabled s.Werk and are working perfectly.

The photo function is uninteresting. Images makes the camera and stores them in a maximum of 640x480 synonymous Memory Stick. (I myself a cheap 16MB Memory Stick worried durchzutesten to these functions). MPG can be synonymous to record to Memory Stick, in 320x240. Also interesting. Images and MPGs can be transferred via a USB cable of the camera to the PC. You can tape the synonymous transferred via USB, then it is but of the accompanying software via USB captured in low quality (320x240).

So the photo and USB functions are in my opinion, garbage.

The converter / converter features are excellent,

Regards

The quality of the image intensifier has no effect on the reproduction and digitization of analog video tapes. It is then only of interest if the camcorder with "normal" (through the lens) is filmed.

Boats but simply with a small calculator to your DOS boot disk

Good luck!
