Your ad does not mention if this video camera works. Does it record and play Digital HI-8 video tapes?

I'm the purchaser, not the advertiser/seller, so I'm not sure why I also received the question (which I see has been answered). Unless there's a second one for sale, I guess you may be too late. :o)

James: It will only work if you have a Video Tape that has three settings. Most of the ones I've seen have only 2 hours and 6 hours or 2 hours and 8 hours for a long playing tape. I have never seen a video tape with a 4 hour recording time but maybe you have. Probably not much help, but that's all i can say to answer your question.charlie

No, This Tape is for the Mini DV recorders, NOT the Hi 8 tape type. There are the Hi 8 type still available i believe>

No it doesn't. Only recording to mini tapes, the pictures go to a memory card.

This cam DOES NOT capture hi def images, or video. It is a standard def camera, so if you have a regular tv it will play just fine, if you ever upgrade to a hi def tv, your videos will play just fine also. DVD's you author with videos made from this camera will work on a standard or hi def set.

No. this one doesnt. But we got another one with the same description from another seller and the second one does record over the previous video.

Any "Hi 8" camera with playback that you can borrow from a friend for a couple of days should show any of your tapes. You should also consider getting a "one touch video capture device" from Amamzon ($25), connecting the borrowed camera to your PC and then moving all the tapes to digital data on your PC. You will experience minor quality losses, but will be able to play them on your flatcreen TV and save them to CDs and DVDs for future viewing convenience. Alternatively, if you have a recent DVD recorder hooke up to your TV, you should be able to play the tapes directly into the Recorder and burn DVDs of each tape.

It will play and record regular 8mm tapes only. The discription for this product is wrong. I purchased this camcorder to convert my tapes to cds but had to return because my 8mm tapes are high definition and this camcorder will not play them. I purchased another one afterwards (Sony DCRTRV350 Digital8 Camcorder) and it worked great for the high definition tapes.

There is no recording device at all on this machine. Very deceptively advertised. It can play records, play CDs, and play tapes. That is it. I gave mine away. Very disappointed.

Will this play a Mini Digital Video Cassette from my Digital Camera on my VHS and can I convert them to DVD in the same unit?

Yes, it does. We have used this camera for quite a few years and are quite pleased with it. I believe cameras using tapes instead of memory chips are not being manufactured.

I had the same problem. NO this camera will only play digital recordings. I wound up buying an old camera to play my analog tapes and used it to transfer my analog tapes to DVD's. cheaper in the long run.

No, there is no video record feature. But it plays just about every video file I've ever tried to play on it. I love mine. I use it all the time.

I don't know the specifics of that camera, but I do recommend you check on that. I bought one of these memory sticks intending to store video on it and it turned out my camera only stored images digitally - video had to be stored on mini dv tapes.

Hey Jeff, it will record both audio and video, you just need to be sure you go in the settings and turn on the audio recording setting. Mine was set to audio recording "off" when I received the unit.

Wendy, I asked my hubby as I had bought for him. He said I should tell you when we had a problem putting VHS on DVD as it was suppose to do, he could not find anyone to look at it let alone fix it. That said, he also says no, it doesn't record without and external digit tuner. He really is NOT happy with the entire unit and Toshiba. He still gets upset thinking I wasted my money on it and it was the one he wanted.
