Archive for the ‘Mini DV Camcorders’ Category

I’m looking into buying a camcorder and have seem a few people say that the mini DV formats are the best. I just want to ask how I view these through my TV or computer and how easy is it to transfer what I record to my computer and/or a DVD? I don’t have much knowledge of computers and don’t want to do anything “fancy” just record and transfer to my computer and a DVD. Any suggestions as to whether another format would be more suitable are welcome and if anyone has any reccomendations of good makes.

I’m trying to learn the differences between mini-DV camcorders and mini-DVD camcorders.
Thanks to some of your answers, I already know that there are concerns that min-DVDs might deteriorate after a couple years. What is the life span of a mini-DV tape? Will it last longer than a mini-DVD?
Thanks.
