What is a good DVD Recorder/Capture Card?

Can you record video onto the SD card on a DVD camcorder or is the SD card for still photos only?

  • I am thinking about getting a DVD camcorder with an SD card slot (possibly the samsung sc-dx103 or the canon dc-d330). If I get it, I would want it to be able to record video to SD card as well as the DVD (just so I could put my videos on youtube, myspace, facebook, etc.) I don't know if the SD card is only for still photos or if it is for photo and video. Does anyone know?

  • Answer:

    Download and read the manual. Canon DC-D330 http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/0300000895/dc330nim-en.pdf Samsung SC-DX103 http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/200809/20080911134044218_SC-DX100_ENG_IB_0725-B.pdf Short answer: No for the Canon; Yes for the Samsung. Video quality - whether recording to the disc or memory card - will be poor. This is a problem with ALL DVD based camcorders. They barely make useful doorstops and should be avoided.

Little Dog's wrong - they're too light to use as door stops! He's right about the rest though.
