Do you (or anyone else) have any advice for either a camera that would be compatible and/or a playback deck that would be relatively inexpensive and also compatible? I was looking at the Sony GV-HD700 because I do a fair amount of work outside of my office so I like the portability of it...but I don't know about the compatibility issue there. </p> <p>Thanks in advance for any further advice.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/opinions-needed-for-production-purchasing#post-45511 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 09:23:58 +0000 jburkhart 45511@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>The HD110u is a great camera, but even though it uses the same tape size and is HDV, the type of HDV is different than what the Canon records, and the Canon will not be able to play back the tapes from the JVC and vice versa. The JVC uses a HDV varient at 19Mbs at 1280x720, while the Canon records an HDV varient of 25Mb/s at 1440X1080. This fragmenting of the HDV "standard" is a constant headache for editors.</p> <p>So keep your HF10, the HV30 wont function as a playback deck for your JVC.</p> <p> </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/opinions-needed-for-production-purchasing#post-45462 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 10:29:23 +0000 TDedmonSBP 45462@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi all, I recently bought a JVC GY-HD110u for my primary camera and already have a Canon HF10 AVCHD camera that will be used mostly for wide shots and b-roll. My question is: now that my main camera is running tape, I am considering selling the canon to buy maybe an hv30 or some other consumer grade HDV format camera so that I don't have to pull the monster JVC out every time I need to capture. Would this be a reasonable move or would I be better off keeping the HF10 and buying a MiniDV VCR that I can use for capture? I am usually a fan of multitaskers over one-trick ponies, but I really love the HF10 and I can't decide which would be the better move. Obviously the HV30 would be the cheaper option since I could probably find someone to trade with, and it wouldn't really cost me much out of pocket. Also would I have to get a VCR that is meant for HD tape or would any one work since it matters mostly what the image was recorded in and not transferred? I hope my questions aren't stupid sounding but I have very little experience with tape decks.</p> <p>Thanks in advance and I hope I have made sense of my querry.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/archiving-vhs-to-mini-dv#post-33744 Sat, 17 Nov 2007 23:27:40 +0000 Coreece 33744@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>The ADVC-100 is great, but I believe it over $200.  I would recommend buying an older DV camera with analog inputs and using it as the converter.  I recently found one at a pawn shop for $50 and it works great for converting my VHS.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/archiving-vhs-to-mini-dv#post-33735 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 21:45:50 +0000 sheepdog 33735@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I have a Canopus ADVC-100, it works great.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/archiving-vhs-to-mini-dv#post-33731 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 15:52:57 +0000 jburkhart 33731@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Yes, it looks like that model of Sony Camcorder doesn't come with any analog inputs. You could use a device like the <a href="http://canopus.com/products/ADVC110/index.php">Canopus ADVC110</a> to do the conversion for you and come out DV that you could record onto your camcorder.  We've used that model here to take some S-vhs footage and move it onto mini-DV with no troubles.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/archiving-vhs-to-mini-dv#post-33728 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 11:45:15 +0000 giantonion 33728@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I just recently purchased the Sony DCR HC 48 Handycam... after scouring Apple's iMovie discussion boards, it appears as though I will NOT be able to transfer VHS footage digitally using this camcorder as a pass through.  This is definitely a problem for me, as I was hoping to archive many VHS tapes to mini-dv.  The emphasis is to archive to mini-dv as opposed to importing all vhs footage directly into iMovie, which could ultimately tie up my internal hard drive (I would like to go through the tapes and edit them at a later date).</p> <p>&lt;p class="gmail_quote"&gt;</p> <p>If I buy an analog to digital converter, do you know if I can somehow transfer the vhs to a mini-dv cassette with this approach?  Again, I would prefer not to directly copy footage into the computer.  What about investing in a vcr/mini-dv unit such as the one linked below?  It appears as though they are no longer manufacturing these but, given my situation, and the number of tapes I am hoping to archive (and eventually edit), it may be a wise purchase.</p> <p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/JVC-SR-VS30U-Mini-DV-S-VHS-VCR_W0QQitemZ110189573382QQihZ001QQcategoryZ3318QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/JVC-SR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;-VS30U-Mini-DV-S-VHS-VCR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;_W0QQitemZ110189573382QQihZ001Q&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QcategoryZ3318QQssPageNameZWDVW&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/JVC-SR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;-VS30U-Mini-DV-S-VHS-VCR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;_W0QQitemZ110189573382QQihZ001Q&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QcategoryZ3318QQssPageNameZWDVW&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a> </a></p> <p>Please write when you have a moment.  Thank you in advance for your assistance... much appreciated!!!</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Joe</p>
