How do I get a tape out of my camcorder?

I have a really old sony hi8 camcorder which records onto tape,does anybody know how i can get that onto disc?

  • Basically, I have a really old camcorder which records onto a small tape which fits inside, now I am wondering if there is a way to get the video of the tape onto disc? Please help.

  • Answer:

    Do you have a DVD recorder connected to your TV for recording TV programs? If so then you might be able to connect your camcorder to the DVD recorder and record you Hi8 to either the hard drive in the DVD recorder or directly to a DVD. This is what I have done with my Hi8 tapes.
