Re: dvcam capture
by Jeff Carpenter on May 9, 2008 at 3:06:32 pm

There are some DV cameras that can play back DVCAM tapes and some that don't.

It sounds like yours "almost" plays it? Perhaps it's made to only read it well enough to play back over the analog outputs but it's not stable enough to give a good digital signal from it? I'm just guessing here.

These are mini-DVCAM, right? Before you spend money renting a whole DVCAM deck, look at the mid-range Sony cameras. Things like the VX-2000 (or 2100) and PD-150 (or 170) are all cameras that play back DVCAM just fine. You might be able to get ahold of one of those cheaper than you could a deck.

Otherwise, renting a DSR-11 deck should do the trick.
