Choice of camcorder

Our historical society did a video interview of individuals and puts them on Vimeo to post a link to their Web site. They asked for a recommendation for the more economical camcorder to do the job better. They want HD, hard drive and the card holder, the use of micro external FM, low light ability of film in a fluorescent bright conference room and ability reasonably wide angle. They want to be able to change the iMovie software. They do not need wifi connectivity. Can someone help me sort of Canon products, the best camcorder for these needs?

Hi Corr,

From what you are looking for, I recommend the VIXIA HF R40.  It shoots in Full HD, internal storage, and it can be used with SD, SDHC or SDXC memory cards.  You can also connect more self-powered stereo microphones that use a connector 3.5 mm for her.  He shoots very well with indoor lighting and the format of the video should work with many publishing platforms, such as iMovie.

If it is a time sensitive matter, additional support options are available to contact us.

  • Camcorder JVC GR D70E driver

    Good evening

    I want to recover the movies recorded using my JVC GRD70E camcorder. I installed the cd rom supplied with the camcorder. That includes Imagemixer which allows to view and edit the videos. My Windows 7 PC does not connect to the camera via the USB cable. It seems that I don't have the right driver? Moreover, when text Imagemixer, I cannot open the home page. I think that there is a pb of compatibility with Windows 7. This worked well with my laptop running Windows XP. Thanks in advance to those who can bring me a solution

  • Driver camcorder (Samsung SC-D6550) problem

    Hello world
    I have a very old Samsung SC-D6550 mini-DV camera and I am trying to import the records on my computer.

    I had problems with recognition of driver. I tried and installed the only driver downloads currently available on the Samsung site for this unit (http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SC-D6550) and I even bought a driver download program thinking they had a different driver, more up-to-date, but that didn't work either. Also, I have "install the driver using compatibility settings" and it still has not recognized. The camcorder is considered as an audio device, and ' type: other devices "and the drivers are not recognized as installed (code 28), although they are, even after the choice of the location of folder with him.

    I resorted to the location and the installation of a driver in Device Manager. However, while my computer finally recognizes the camcorder as a camcorder (and not an audio device) and the driver status "working properly", editing on my computer programs do not recognize the camcorder and I can't import the video, which is my goal.

    I realize that I use Windows 8 and I think I read the pilot is 32 bit might have something to do with it, but I don't know what to do to solve the problem.

    I spent many hours of reading and experimenting/troubleshooting without result. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi Althea,

    Thanks for the reply.

    There is no way to change the operating system temporarily.

    To work around the problem, you can follow these steps:

    a. connect the camera to a computer running under Windows XP/Vista.

    b. transfer the recordings from the camera to the computer.

    c. copy these files/tapes of the Windows XP/Vista computer on a USB drive (for example: Pen drives or external hard drive).

    d. connect and transfer cassettes to the USB on the computer of Windows 8.

    Thank you.

  • How to import a DV camcorder - what codec?

    Hello

    I want to archive my mini-DV camcorder tapes by capturing their video with first Elements 3.0 (I have a newer version, but don't have 3.0 on my XP machine having a port firewire i / f).

    I managed to capture a single band and I see a series of AVI files (as expected).  I have two questions:

    Is it possible / preferable to capture video in dv format only (with no recognition of the jumps of timestamp and no wrappers)?

    Y at - it any loss in .avi compared to tape files (i.e. different codec is / are there other options)?

    Best regards

    David

    I don't remember not the E3. but there may be a setting that says you can deactivate scene detection.

    If its better depends on your workflow. I would not only a single file. Lost work to cut out the bad pieces.

    None of the wrappers? AVI is a container of wrapper / there is no other choice.

    Band to computer transfer is alone. No loss. AVI is the best solution.

  • Cannot save the entry camcorder 8 mm on iMovie 10.1.2

    I'm trying to import the old videos from the camcorder into iMovie.

    Videos are played on TR33 Sony video 8 mm Handycam (analog) through a Sony TRV 22 Hi portable (digital) 8. This provides the necessary a/d conversion.

    See the video and audio correctly in the window of the events at the time of import. However when I stop importing nothing is saved.

    As a side note, if I import the single (digital) trv22 video, it seems to work as it breaks the clamps in individual events based on time.

    The literature seems to say a widow pop up asking where to store the video should appear when importing. However I don't see that.

    Have iMac with El Capitan 10.11.6

    iMovie 10.1.2

    This problem appeared in the discussions here and in FCPX. The cause of the lack of registration is due to the lack of timecode that iMovie requires. In switch mode there is no timecode of the TRV 22. The solution is to record the video to Handicap the TRV 22 and then import in iMovie.

  • I run a Mac Pro with El Capitan and iMovie 11 will not recognize my camcorder Sony FDR-AX35P 4 K

    I run a Mac Pro with El Capitan. iMovie 11 will not recognize my camcorder Sony FDR-AX45P 4 K. He keeps asking connect a camera.

    iMovie 11 (version 9) supported cameras include not all models Sony FDR.  iMovie 10 supports a number of FDR-AXxx models however does not list your a see particular: iMovie support cameras - Apple Support

    There are a number of problems of running iMovie 11 under El Capitan, particularly with still pictures appears.  (It does not supports video 4K).  I recommend try iMovie 10.1.2 which you should be able to get in for free or may already have in your applications folder.  Although your camera model in particular is still not listed, I would expect it would probably work, and failing that you should be able to read files directly from the SD card if you put in an SD card reader.

  • Choice of the desktop image doesn't "stick".

    I would like to change my desktop image every few months. I do not use the option "change images". A photo is great at the time.

    I was not able to get my choice for 'stick' after either restarting, log - you (and back), or stopping and restarting. I don't know if any of my login items could interfere - it seems unlikely, and I could not verify that.

    My Login include Android File Transfer Agent (hidden), join.me Launcher (hidden), (hidden) TotalFinder AdobeResourceSynchronizer and EpsonLowInkReminderAgent (hidden).

    Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

    May be a corrupt .plist.

    Make a backup, preferably 2 backups on 2 separate drives.

    Go to Finder and select your user folder. With this Finder window as the windshield, select Finder/display/display options for presenting or order - J.  When the display options opens, check "show the library folder. This should make your visible user library folder in your user folder.  Select the library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist.  Move the .plists on your desktop.

    Relaunch the Finder by restarting the computer and test. If it works fine, delete the plists from the desktop.

    If the same, return the .plists to where you obtained since, by crushing the latest.

  • Can not remove permanently secure choice of search engines research

    Hello. I deleted all my engines except Google search. However, there is a single search called Secure. I manually delete, but if I closed and reopened FF it reappears. It shows in the search, as well as menu choices if I try to do a search, it shows at the bottom of suggestions of concordance.

    I did a little research, and it is not related to moy. I am running McAfee. I also McAfee Secure Search does not, but it seems not be McAfee. I noticed this after I have updated to the latest version of FF. I don't know how to remove it permanently. Any help would be appreciated. I added two screenshots. A watch what it looks like when I do a search, and the other when I go into the options for search engines. Thank you.

    It certainly isn't a search engine plugin.

    You want to look for in these places and see if it is sitting there and can be deleted?

    (1) for the shared search engine plugins folder

    Open C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\browser using the start menu or Windows Explorer. Are there records related to research here? Search plugins have an .xml extension and usually show the file type "XML Document".

    (2) current folder plugins profile search engine

    Try to open the settings file (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Look for a folder named searchplugins and check inside for the unwanted search engine XML file. You will find there?

  • Is it possible to create a bookmarks folder that exists as a file in a folder Windows of my choice (my Dropbox folder rather than my Firefox profile)?

    For example, I can create a file to archive e-mail Outlook (PST) and place it in a shared folder as Dropbox, open it and work with its content from multiple computers.

    Import/export built-in Firefox feature fails on two levels: having to manually manage export/import all sessions and especially, not being only unable to nothing less than the bookmarks together each time file import and export.

    I have watched Add-ons, but did not have much luck there.

    Thank you

    1. From topic: config you can toggle browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to True to activate the favourites being stored in the old format bookmarks.html, which is currently unused or only used for basic bookmarks with Firefox.
    2. Then use this extension for moving backups bookmarks.html in a folder of your choice. http://www.Pikey.me.UK/Mozilla/?addon=bookmark-backup

    You will get that bookmarks are saved in a format that can be easily edited and automate a new file is created each time Firefox is closed. As well as having a number of days of value of backups being saved.
    I did this since Firefox 3.0 was released, during the storage of bookmarks went from bookmarks.html to places.sqlite.

    Problem is that extension must be "signed" by Mozilla to work beyond 43 Firefox; not sure if the developer - Pike - plans to submit for signature or simply left to die.

    Any ideas to do differently, it's probably not in the Firefox Support.

    You can try to open the topic: the page of preferences via the address bar.
