Pros: plays 3 formats (hi 8 digital 8 and analog tapes, firewire control, small compact, can run off sony battery
I purchased this for Transferring 8mm, Hi-8, and Digital 8 Tapes to DVD. It works awesome! You can use with any system, Mac and Windows. I tested with both, and works well. I'm currently capturing with windows xp, windows movie maker. Capturing with firewire control into dv-avi and creating dvd with My DVD from Roxio. It is working out very nice. 1 Hour of dv-avi footage is about 14 GB or windows movie maker estimates it to be about 178 MB /minute. Just make sure you have enough hard drive space for high quality capture before you compress to MPEG 2 or another more compressed format. If possible hook to a monitor so you can view settings and different outputs rather than just in the computer from the firewire.
