Hitachi Digital camera/Video Cam....Ram compatible?

Question

my cam is not a DVD-RW but it is ram compatible....doesn't that mean that the ram can be erased and reused? I know it can be erased, I have erased it but I mean record transfer to the computer put on a DVD and the erase, or does that just mean until I have what I want recorded on the Ram and then it has to be finalized by the camera before I can see it on the computer....I am very confused because as of now the computer will not read the unfinalized ram....do you know how the Ram works?

Answer 1

hope this helps... has to be finalized yes, otherwise you'll need a ripper. If you have a Dvd ram driver in your pc, you can access this disk like hard drive C/D easy to drag/drop (and delete of course) unlike Dvd-RW which would need a burner to write.

Answer 2

Try reading the owner's manual. Very useful document.
