feebletailwhipout said:i said unless. stan told me he has a Hi8 camera. that is not a digital format. you would need an analog to digital converter in which you plug in the yellow red white cords into the card, and it sends the analog video into the converter which then, using your video editor, turns the signal into a digital feed for the capture, turning the ANALOG video into DIGITAL video. converters are kind of expensive though, i would just buy a miniDV camera.
