Has anybody actually hooked up an analogue camera to a Digital one , and then to their pc ? I beleieve it works , but wonder what the quality is like ? Unfortunately my Mini DV doesnt allow this , but a colleague's may. (not sur ehow I find out if they do , bar asking you nice guys).
Ok, my friend has a Sony DCR-TRV80 MiniDV. I have checked the full spec on Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00009KYHY/qid=1122670104/202-8185315-1982253 and it mentions "analog to digital conversion with pass through" , and "dv input". Does that mean it can do pass through .. sure sounds like it ! If it can , what cable do I need to get to hook up the 2 cameras ? My camera is a Sanyo VM-RZ2R, and has 2 ports (video and one , yes one, audio) . Many thanks for any help re-this.
