Your best option is to use Firewire (i.LINK) which you hook up to the camera's DV-out port. Your PC needs to have a Firewire port; if not they are often cheap and easy to install.<BR type="_moz" /></P><P class="p1" style=";"><BR /></P><P class="p1" style=";">Failing that, you will have to use the camera's analogue output, using the mini-jack to phono cable that came with the camera, plugged into some kind of video transfer device that will re-digitise the video. Obviously, going through these stages will incur a noticeable quality loss compared to a direct Firewire connection.<BR /></P><P class="p1" style=";"><BR /></P><P class="p1" style=";">If you need help and advice setting one of these options up, just ask <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.se/html/@4D7C97FD8435BC5F6F42C999D01DAE43/images/smilies/026.png" alt=":cool:" title=":cool:" /><BR type="_moz" /></P><P class="p1" style=";"><BR /></P><P class="p1" style=";">Cheers<BR type="_moz" /></P><P class="p1" style=";">Mic<BR type="_moz" /></P><BR /><BR /></BODY></HTML> Sun, 10 Mar 2013 09:57:26 GMT https://community.sony.se/t5/camcorders/transfer-film-to-computer/m-p/663113#M511 Mick2011 2013-03-10T09:57:26Z
