Works great, ony problem is, how can i copy files back to the camera from my PC? I have tried putting them in the stream folder, and several other methods. I can copy them, but I cannot play them on the camera once they are copied. They do appear on the internal HDD, but I just cannot play them back on the camera itself. Is there a way to get the camera to check the HDD to add the files to the media database on the camera? Thanks heaps. freddie on "Mini DV(HDV), HDD, or Solid-State P2 ???" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mini-dvhdv-hdd-or-solid-state-p2#post-56857 Mon, 29 Mar 2010 09:00:03 +0000 freddie 56857@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ What is the best solution for shooting video now? Mini DV, Hard Drive Disk, or the Solid-State P2? And what HD camera is the best for around 2,000-3,000? Should I keep filming with Mini DV or Switch?? I went to Best Buy a few days ago looking for a Mini DV Camera and they didn't have any and the lady working that department told me I was old school and needed to up grade to what they had the HDD and Solid-State. I couldn't believe that. My Canon GL2 was worth more than all of those there!(even tho i know the price of that cam is no longer the same but still). I'm not a professional but can someone please help me with some REAL answers.

I plan on spending a nice chunk of savings on a one- or three-chip video camera. I love the convenience of direct-to-hard drive storage. However, I have never been able to get a definite answer as to whether or not I am losing picture quality by not recording it to a DV Tape. Is this the case?<o:p></o:p> What is the difference in quality when recording on a HDD or DV tape? Is there one? <o:p></o:p> Also, as far as filmmaking goes, can anyone suggest a great starter camera (until now I have used camcorders) for an independent filmmaker that produces good picture without unnecessary luxury accessories. In other words I’m looking for a great ‘deal’ camera. <o:p></o:p> lolito on "Best new High Def HDD ?" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/best-new-high-def-hdd#post-45441 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 20:55:36 +0000 lolito 45441@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ Hi, I am planning to buy a new High Def. HDD camera. I have seen some new Panasonic 3CCD, Sony and Canon Cameras. I need it to perform well under Low light (indoors) scenery and have a good picture quality. Is the 3CCD lense the best one or is there any other new technology for optimal image quality?

Â I am a beginner, but I am by no means an amatuer.Â What I mean by that is, I am VERY Tech Savvy, and electronics are second nature to me, so I am not intimidated by features or manuals.Â Any suggestions, I would greatly appreaciate.Â Thank you in advance!

When I connect the USB-cable, Windows identifies it as being a USB Mass Storage, and I can easily access it as one, it is when trying to enter the Capture Feature of a program, that it fails to comply, giving messages as "No Input" etc. Would anyone happen to know what could be wrong? And if so, what I can do about the problem. (I really need this to work, in order to make a stopmotion movie) //Cheers, and hopefully thanks in advance <img src="http://projectw.org/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> vizfx on "VX2100 and HDR-SR11 - miniDV vs HDD" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/vx2100-and-hdr-sr11-minidv-vs-hdd#post-36046 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 03:32:35 +0000 vizfx 36046@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ Hi I want to buy a new camera and I have some doubts. The comparison is between VX2100 and HDR-SR11 - MiniDV or HDD camcorders. I know that is a big difference between them including the price, VX2100 is almost double as price. First question that comes in my mind is how reliable are the HDD camcorders? The estimated usage is about 3-5 hours/week in SD format. I think the obvious choice in this case is Sony VX2100.
