Connecting my Hi 8 video camera to computer for Windows Movie Make

[Guest]

Greetings! I'm new at this whole making a movie thing, and we do not have a
digital camcorder. We do have a Sony ccd-trv68, and I attempted to go onto
the SONY site to see if what I would need to connect the two. I haven't had
much luck. Does anyone know?

Check the Analog Video Camcorders section of my website for ideas... you
need a capture device.

I use a Dazzle 80 device to capture from my 6 year old Sony Hi8 ccd-trv 615.

Hello. Here are some other resources for information about connecting an
analog video camera to your computer and capturing video from it by using
Windows Movie Maker 2.
