Justin - thanks a million man. I actually looked at the same camera and thought it was a pretty good fit for what I needed... A couple questions:This might seem REALLY dumb. What is a "mini DV" recorder. I'm guessing D.V. means "digital video." Do these things take some kind of actual videotape, or those mini-dvd's?


I think the Mini-DV camcorders use these things. But I'm not sure. Can you keep using the same tape over and over again?

Would it be hard to get the video from the camera and put it in MPEG format on my computer?

I know that the still shots will be stored on the memory card. Can you put video on the memory card too?
