Hi,(posted 7737 days ago)About to edit my first short, shot on 16x9 in DVCAM - Sony DSR500 (small DVCAM tapes). I noticed that I can playback DVCAM tapes on a mini-dv camera. I have a mini-dv cam handy, rented the DSR500 for shoot only
Can I use the mini-dv camera to firewire the footage to the Mac? Will there be any loss of quality? or should I find a dvcam camera?
