jf951 1 #1 April 4, 2010 so i have a Sony DCR-HC42 and i was wondering how you guys offload the footage from it either to a mixer board or to a computer, i noticed there is a dock that can be used (which i dont have) is there any other way to work this one out?Jump more, Bitch less.

dragon2 2 #2 April 4, 2010 For a computer: you need the dock, a firewire port on your pc, a firewire cable with the right connectors to connect the 2, some capture software. For a mixing board: generally these use the A/V (composite) port, sometimes the S-video port. I'm thinking in this case you need the composite cable that came with the camera (ie, with the half-moon shaped connector). ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
