In Reply to: Baby due in a few days. Help! Camcorder & DVD burner recs... posted by utex97 on July 6, 2005 at 07:20:30:
I'm a big fan of JVC VHS-C camcorders. You could get an adapter that would enable you to play the compact tape in your VCR. Then all you'd have to do is plug in to your own, or a friend's, DVD recorder. Do you already have a camcorder? There are DVD camcorders available but I've not played with any of those. Perhaps a local camera or electronics store would have some models you could rent. As for discs I'd say DVD-R is the way to go. I'm just getting into it but my research showed me that DVD-R discs will play without any problems on most of the DVD players out there. As I understand it DVD+R is a Sony format. I'd suggest capturing your special moment on tape and putting it on disc later when you've decided what's best.
