question about sony PD100 camera
by marguu on Mar 4, 2007 at 11:56:48 pm

Does the Sony PD100 have AV inputs? As in RCA input so I could use it to route VHS and DVD into my FCP editing program?

The Trv900/PD100 doesn't have doesn't have A/V->DV pass-through, you can record the A/V to tape and play it back though.

So it does have the AV input I could use to at least record from VHS?

You can record the A/V input to DV tape, just be aware that tapes are 2/3s normal size.

I think you mean to say 2/3 of the "normal RECORDING LENGTH."

Of course, it uses the same size miniDV tape as other DV camcorders.

Since the PD100 only records at DVCAM speed, it will record on a "60 min." DV tape only for about 40 minutes before it runs out.

Simplesticly mini Tapes are sized by time available

[Matte] ""normal RECORDING LENGTH.""
Normal recording length would be about 70 meters.

It will record DVCAM and MiniDV. Just set what you want in the menu.

What menu setting? PD100 records DVcam only, it will playback a miniDV tape but not record in the DV mode.
