Yeah- you need to convert to digital- in which case, you're better to buy a new camera.  I know it sucks to hear it, but it's true.  You can buy a converter, but they're expensive and you lose quality.  So, if you have a really expensive older camera, it should have editing options on it to use and create a video- then go to a shop(usually a privately owned video store does this) and have your VHS tape converted to a DVD.
