    My little camcorder only has an DV out function to transfer footage to digitalize. Would I be requiring a DV in port as well?

    I’m trying to pick all this up as quick as I can but sometimes it seems so complicated.

    DV goes both ways..

    If your deck has a record button… it can record

    Might help if you give better details… like Manufacturer.. Model # etc.

    The thing is that I don’t have a deck. All I have is a camcorder. I need to send a copy of a film in mini dv format to a film festival, and I am at a loss on how to do it without a deck – therefore i’m asking if a camcorder can double on this function as well.

    Yes. Use the same as deck. Connect it up and use print to video or edit to tape.

    All the best,

    Tom
