I have the TVR-350, and Firewire DV cables are always a tight fitting connection. This cable works just fine for them.

It worked on my DCR-SR47, but I don't know about the hc28 specifically. I do know that it's the same size as a generic usb small (micro?) cord but the generic wouldn't work on my handycam and this one would.

Agree with the previous answer. As an FYI, the USB cord is strictly for transferring files from the recorder to a computer/laptop.

I own a Sony Digital Video Camera Recorder, also known as a Digital Handy Cam, and have transferred movies from it to disc without a problem. The camera uses Digital Video Cassettes labeled as DV. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hello Meredith. I looked and read the manuals for your model. It looks like this standard cord will work for your recorder. I bought two, one for an external drive and one for an old laptop, and they work perfectly. Even if it does not work, you can always use it for another gadget. Considering the price, you won't lose much. The other two suggestions are very good. Buona fortuna. Bernardo

I don't know about your camcorder, but for my camcorder it would not work. I have a Sony DCR-DVD 92 and it uses a much bigger battery InfoLithium NP-FP90 7.2V

Absolutely it will. I have to say, though, that there are now XHCSD camcorders that make the need for tape drive camcorders obsolete. This cam is outdated at this point and the tape drive maintenance will upset you after a while. Go with a newer cam that uses SD cards.

Important here, There are two types of Sony Head cleaning cassettes. One for mini-DV only. The one for Sony DCR-TRV9 is Sony V8 - 25 LCD head cleaner for Digital 8 camcorders. Check your instruction booklet to be sure of cassette tape you need, Tom.

I was able to convert several cassettes to cd and mp3 but the converter died and I had to find a different unit to finish my project. This USB unit is cheaply made and not reliable. Sorry.

Hi Jaime, this Sony CCD-TRV68 doesn't have or support Firewire connection on your Mac PC. For you to transfer videos coming from your Hi8 tapes from this camcorder, what you need is an AV connecting cable (male mini plug to RCA). In addition, you may wanted to use this Sony DVDirect MC6 DVD Recorder (model #VRDMC6) for you to transfer on DVD first. Hope this helps. -Ely

You can either connect the camcorder to a computer using IEEE wire, I think they used to call it fire wire, and is the wire with a smaller connection than USB. Or you can use the other cables with the red, white and yellow ends and connect to a dvd or vhs recorder. All the wires come with the camcorder. The same wires you would use to connect to a tv to watch your tapes on the tv. You can access the owners manual for instruction at I think the Sony Support web site.

I have a sony video camera. If you use the 8mm tapes-same size as this cassette, you can use the tape head cleaner. It works if you have mildly dirty heads. But if the heads are worn, the tape wil not work and the heads must be repaired. I purchase the head cleaner as a cheaper alternative to repair. It seems to have worked for me. It saved me a lot of money.

If you have the camera there is transfer boxes you can buy for about $30, I'm sure on amazon too. You just plug audio/video cables in and transfer anything to the computer, then burn it on DVD. I have one and it works great. If you don't have the camera there should be something that just plays the tapes, may be hard to find though. Mini DV camcorders are obsolete now, should be able to find one pretty cheap or on eBay to use for transferring tapes.

you can use 2.0 or 3.0 usb cables but not tape unless you have adapter. You can transfer video from PC to this external hard drive using either USB fine.

Hi, this Sony audio cable connects your camcorder to an AV-equipped TV or VCR. Camcorder should have a 10-pin Audio/Video Remote connection. You may check you Sharp camcorder if it supports 10-pin connectors. -Ely

I purchased a Toshiba dvd/vcr combination recorder/ player. It is model # DVR670KU. I have never been able to get it to work. I have a Sony LCD Digital Color TV (Bravia). Even the cable guy could not get it to work. I bought it on Ebay (first mistake) and they would not take it back. I have had it 2 years and yet to get it to record or play a dvd. What am I doing wrong.
