I need to watch a mini dv tape but i have no digital camera for it?

Question

i have these panasonic dvc mini dv dvm80 tapes i need to watch. I dont have the camera for these tapes so does that mean i have to buy another camera? Or is there another way to watch and transfer these tapes to the pc (like a mini-vcr or something..lol)?

Answer 1

You can get this http://cgi.ebay.com/CONVERT-TRANSFER-VHS...

Answer 2

You can get MiniDV decks, but they're more expensive than the camcorders!  I'd look out for a used camcorder.  Don't forget you'll need firewire on your PC, too.

Answer 3

you don't use a digital camera, you use a camcorder that supports mini dv's
