I hadn't thought of using a portable DVD player as the remote viewfinder/monitor. I'll give it a try!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-hf100-to-tv-while-recording#post-47324 Thu, 28 May 2009 18:56:54 +0000 CraftersOfLight 47324@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>In an attempt to build a camera jib for my &lt;span id="btAsinTitle"&gt;Panasonic HDC-SD9, I was toying with, and able to, display on a portable DVD player what the camera was seeing, using the player as a remote "viewfinder". I was able to do pretty much anything the remote allowed me to, to record, zoom, and navigate menus and play back the recording as well. I can't see Canon being much different.&lt;/span&gt;</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-hf100-to-tv-while-recording#post-47308 Thu, 28 May 2009 11:30:59 +0000 dgponce56 47308@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm not at home right now, or I'd just try this myself instead of posting this question here:</p> <p>I have a Canon HF100. A friend of mine and I are going to try recording some video of puppet performers. One of the performers asked if it's possible for us to connect a tv/monitor to the camera's HDMI or Video Out, and place the tv/monitor where the performers will be located, so that they can see what the camera is recording as they perform (they will be hidden behind some scenery). So--will a basic consumer-type camera like the HF100 display 'video out' to a TV or monitor WHILE IT'S RECORDING? I KNOW from reading the manual that the camera connects to an HDTV or regular tv for playback. But will it send signal to the tv while recording? Thanks for any insight/information...</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-hf100-editing-question#post-41768 Wed, 26 Nov 2008 11:15:59 +0000 dg10m 41768@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I am purchasing a camera for the first time and after hours of research I'm finally down to choosing between the Canon HV 30 and HF100. It seems that either camera would be great in terms of picture quality and the audio issues with the HV30 can be dealt with by using an external mic. My questions have to do with editing. Since I will be shooting things that will require a great deal of editing AND I will be learning this as I go, I am looking for the best way to go. I don't have very much experience with this.</p> <p>I have read numerous things in regards to editing and I'm quite confused. I have been told that using tape will take a long period of time to upload to my computer prior to editing(one hour of shooting will take one hour to upload). On the other hand, I have read that the HF100 will take even longer, maybe up to three times the amount of material (One hour of shooting will take three hours to upload), Is this accurate???</p> <p>Also, I have read that editing will be more difficult with the HF100 than with the HV30. Is this true??? It would seem to me that once the material is uploaded editing would be similiar whether it came from tape or a memory stick. Am I wrong with this???</p> <p>So, as a beginner in this field and being someone that will be learning the shooting and editing aspects to all of this any thoughts on my questions would be greatly appreciated.</p>
