Go look it up, its a Sony HandyCam DCR- > TRV460 NTSC. and about 11 years old IIRC. So not Hi8 then! :p (If you look I did mention Digital8 too.) Not sure where you get the idea it's 720P capable! Specs on website state 640x480 and you even state in the name you provided it's NTSC, which is never 720P, same as PAL and SECAM aren't. They are old, SD standards. 720/1080 P/I are very different beasts really. Anyway it's probably more important to talk about the standardised DV25 and DV50 protocol all these commercial/prosumer products use for communication that tape/card formats. There are some Sony and Panasonic camera that do this fine over USB so it's not impossible or a problem with USB itself. I see yours (and apparently many others) claim to have some kind of USB Streaming but for some reason it's not usually full quality, as you would get from Firewire. Wonder why... |
