I want to purchase a Camcorder = Flash Drive/Memory Card type thingy

I want mid range $ zone and ease of posting vids to something like photobucket so that I can share

So ?

I was looking at this one the other day

Sony NSC-GC1 Net
• MS/MS PRO Duo memory card
• 4x digital zoom
• 2.4" SwivelScreen
• USB streaming
• Image stabilization
• Scene modes

MAx optical zoom you can get
Good optics (Sony are Leica or Canon)

That is all i got.....except maybe a tripod so you can go "handsfree"

mdiver said:

I have a miny tripod for my miny camcorder

She has a brand new dance sat morning - we are rushing to get a costume done and I would love for you ( and others who are interested ) to be able to really see her

Mach said:

Can't wait

that sony is really just for posting on youtube or used as a webcam, you won't be happy with the quality Mach.

JerseyKRS said:

Oh

suggestions ?

I just want to be able to share nice vids of the fam or whatever with people

Mach said:

first question, as always, how much do you want to spend on it? that will determine what format you can afford.

JerseyKRS said:

300 or lower I hope

So can I use my miny camcorder that I have now ? I mean it records on a miny tapes can I put that info on my PC ?

something like ...

Connecting Your Camcorder and PC

Connect your DV camera to your PC using a FireWire cable. The connection on digital video cameras is always a 4-pin FireWire connector (sometimes called either DV or iLINK depending on the camcorder brand). Desktop PCs, with the exception of Sony computers use 6-pin FireWire connections. Sony uses 4-pin connectors on their desktop PCs as well. On a laptop, the FireWire connection is almost always 4-pin. Make sure you get a FireWire cable to match your needs. For most desktop systems, this means you need a 4-pin to 6-pin cable. For laptops and all Sony computers you need a 4-pin to 4-pin cable

So I really do not know what to do / get




TY though again for the input

Mach said:

which model do you currently have?

mdiver said:

JCV Mini DV digital Video Camera
Model GR-D270U

Mach said:

and something like this (video is not my thang )

http://www.blazemp.com/

then maybe some memory for your pc

Your camcorder will connect to your pc via USB (According to the manufacturer)with a larger hard drive and video conversion software you just copy the movie from your camcorder to your pc and cut the bit you want out...covert to mpeg or avi and post it.

At least that is what i would do and its under 300 bucks

TY Phil


Maybe video isn't gonna be my thing either

Mach said:

This looks ok....

Samsung VP-MX10/XEU Flash Memory Camcorder

I was looking at the new Samsung cams as well




Thanx for the info

I wonder if there are companys that convert the mini tapes into a dvd or something like that ...

and what if I do have a DVD ( I do ) is that even an option for getting something up for people to see ?

Why do Ieven care about this
?

Mach said:

There are companies, butthat is exactly what you could do on your pc with the first option






I know why you care

Mach, Mdiver you're both totally on the right track.

Mach, you have a DV cam like mine (mine's a sony but who gives...) where you record onto tape and then you can upload from your cam to the PC. You still have digital quality so that's great the only drawback I've found is it's such a frikkin' chore.

Good luck...
