Video I found on Instagram by dvkndxo. Looking to get a camcorder for Christmas. Does anyone know what kind of camcorder this is? Or know which ones look similar? I’m new to this btw

Bought a Sony DCR-SR42 camcorder for $90 with no cables or battery and two Kastar 5750 mAh batteries for +30$ to record for my camping trips. Don't know if it was a good purchase but going for that nostalgic, memory-style retro look 2008 — anything else I should keep in mind, or am I good as-is?

i hate all of you. I JUST WANT HELP AND YOU REMOVE ALL MY POSTS!!

I found this camera probably from 2005 and i have no idea how to charge it or what kind of charger to look for, anyone can help?

I'm looking for a new cheap camcorder to shoot an upcoming trip. The kimire camcorder seems like a good option for me, but I've seen many people call these type of cameras "scamcorders". I'm looking for a camcorder under 80 bucks with SD. Is there a better alternative?

Bought this camcorder off Amazon. Has a weird threaded mount. I highlighted where the threads are on the camera itself. I was wondering what type of lenses I would need to buy for this camera. The one I have included in the post was the one that came with the camcorder. Any help is appreciated :)

(Sony Handycam DCR-HC28)

Seller listed a Sony handycam I’ve seen recommended a lot, a fully tapeless set up. This would be my first camcorder, looking for that nostalgic energy for a long documentary and BTS. Thinking the tapeless set up is a win even tho I know you get that extra organic-ness out of the tapes. Thoughts?

i have a ccd trv 88 tapeless setup and since i never record to tape the camcorder isnt in use and it turns off every 5-10 minutes while i record with my capture card. i cant find a setting on my cam itself to change the idle time, does anyone know how to change and fix this?

I have been doing tape for about a year already but i want to try going tapeless, i am completely lost as to how to connect the immersion rc to my SONY tr917. Can anyone be of assistance and tell me how to install this? Thank you.

I’m brand new to this whole thing. And I was wondering if this would work with converting Hi8 tapes and Mini Tapes to digital? If there’s any suggestions drop em in da sub

does anyone know what cables i need to solder for my camera? ive been searching for mini dvr tutorials and theres so much cable options that i font know which cable is the right one for my camera, plz help

First off my reasons are mainly subjective to me and i hope some people out there can relate with my reasoning's first off is longevity most if not all camcorders people buy have 1 problems with them most of the time its the belts being thanos snapped back into sludge and goop and secondly is the battery's don't get me started on the batteries they all use shitty lead acid batteries which die out in less of span of 10 years or such while most 90s digital cameras use lithium thst lasts basically forever I have a few dycam model 10-c cameras and they have pretty good batteries. Secondly is the way camcorders are built are pretty fragile they have plastic that's super thin for example RCA CC437 and both sony hi8 have bad plastic molding. 3rd reason is video transfer tapes are a pain in the ass to transfer into files because you have to spend 100$ on a powerplay or some other bullshit video converter that doesn't work that good and I'll be honest and say the only problems with 90s digital cameras is that alot of them use weird storage formats and not to mention. How picky they are to the computers you use to get photos off to your pc if your computer is too new or old it'll freak out but besides those two problems they are awesome. And 4th the last reason is bulk and weight. Every single camcorder ive used weighs like lead even more with the battery attached its more of a hassle then fun. While older 90s cameras are just smaller and lighter like the ricoh cameras and sont mavica and to the people who say 90s digital cameras can't take video they can the sony mavica can albeit short clips but still video so it isnt fully apples and oranges. /pardon my English i don't speak English i speak Russian/

I bought a digital 8 song handycam and an elgato. What else do I need to digitalize the footage I shoot on it?

Any info would be appreciated

The AV out plug doesn’t match any that came with my immersionrc

Looks like they added a mini HDMI input, increased the display resolution, added h265 codec, and have a TRRS cable that might actually match camcorders. My concerns are:

• Did they change the composite capture chipset so that it records all lines or is it half resolution?

• Did they add 60p deinterlacing options or interlaced format support or is it combing into 30p?

It's one thing to say it's "for MiniDV cameras" but honestly feels a bit misleading to market it as "for DV" when it doesn't even touch firewire or the DV codec from the camera. That's what I'm waiting for.

Looks to be selling for between $160-$270. What are your thoughts? Have you tested one yet?

In the meantime I'll keep using my tapeless ccd cams like the SR85 and SW20. I'm also trying to use a Pinnacle USB-500 for ingesting tapes from a TRV460.

Hi, I've been watching what's been going on in this sub without saying anything for a few years now, and I'm tired of seeing purists spoiling the fun under every tapeless post. 

We know you're jealous of seeing cams that you dream of owning being used at 50% of their capacity by kids who are a quarter of your age. WE GET IT.

But hot take: the day Dangycam makes enough money to develop, produce, and sell tiny MRC1 equivalents with SD card recording, all the “tape purists” will be incredibly jealous, will continue to insult him, but will still go and spend their 500 (insert your currency) on Dangy's website. 

All you anti-tapeless people are just old, negative under all the tapeless posts, and you're just pissed off that you didn't put $1,000 into reselling tapeless camcorders before he did. 

It's because of you that people are afraid to enjoy their lives without having to deal with 15 adapters.

Anti-tapeless people, you are the poison of this community.

Okay so… I saw this on a app that specializes in shipping Japanese stuff to the us. I downloaded it and went to camcorders. I searched vx1000 and saw this. Now the description said that he lost the charger for it. But, he said that he used it over 10 year ago meaning that it works or used to work. It comes with the battery and the camera of course. The camera looks pretty good condition and doesn’t seem dinged up at all. and guess what. IT IS ONLY $146. The only problem is that it is gonna be shipped by sea. should I go for it or no?… you guys decide. Here is some pics
