How to connect my camcorder to my PC?

How would you connect a Sony Handycam Vision CCD-TRV22 camcorder to a PC?

  • I got this old-fashioned camcorder, type and model mentioned in the title, at Goodwill. I know it's old-fashioned, but I don't mind. My question is, is it possible to connect a cam like this to a PC? Or would you need a converter that takes the tapes themselves and turns them into digital media? Answers are appreciated, and God bless.

  • Answer:

    The Sony CCD-TRV22 is an analog camcorder. You need an "analog/digital converter" like those from Roxio or Elgato for a USB connection... or if your computer has a firewire port, the Canopus ADVC55 or ADVC110. Connect the AV cable that came with the camcorder (or a suitable replacement) to the camcorder's AV port and the A/D converter. Connect the A/D converter to the computer...
