Camcorder Help-Sony CCDTR70
Okay, I found an old camcorder in my basement, an old Sony CCDTR70. I needed a camcorder, but I don't have the 600 dollars to buy one. So at the moment, I was thinking of using this one.
Now, this thing is about 10 years old, so it doesn't have USB capabilities. So does anyone know how I can get this thing running so I can edit on my computer?
to get a camera loaded onto a computer, you need a FireWire connection.
if your computers new you'll probably have one in the back. (looks kind of like a really fat USB with a point on its side)
then you'l need to make sure that your camera has some sort of cable connector thing on the camera… Ofcourse you'll need to purchase a FireWire cable, but they really arent very expensive.
But because your camera is as you said, 10 years old, i doubt it will have a socket on it, to allow for a firewire connection.
