    From Canonusa.com website:

    “Simply feed the analog signal from your TV, VCR or analog camcorder to your HV10 to convert the signal to digital for recording on DV tape.”

    This should work equaly well for lipstick cameras with RCA connectors.

    Thanks, the specs just say that it has an A/V minijack, USB, and IEEE 1394. I’d assume the A/V minijack is a RCA breakout cable of 1 video and 2 audio but I can’t find any definitive info on that, and this is one of the main reasons I’m looking at the camera.

    You can download the User Instruction Manual in PDF form from the Canonusa.com web site under “Support” “Downloads”. Page 57 shows the adapters and how to connect them. In addition you can view all the operating instruction and evaluate if this will do what you need.

    Gregg,

    The HV10 can be used as a record deck as long as you are inputting 60i DV or 60i HDV over FireWire or inputting Analog NTSC Composite Video (DV only) via the Analog Input Adaptor cable. The Component interface is an output only, active only during playback.

    Let me know if you have any other questions about this,

    Yes. Use firewire to record.
