Well i just got this litle wonder during the xmas holiday. I was a bit disappointed by the fact that you can only record 30 minutes at a time on the DVD's. Its ok, ill live with it seeing as the camera was free . I have a few questions. First, is there a way to use the camera as a webcam? Also, is it possible to record from the camera directly onto my computer. Sometimes i do some videos but i dont wanna have to use up a DVD-R or anything like that. I want it to go straight to my HDD on my PC. Thx for the responds.
