[Frameworks] Hi-8 equipment
I have a sony Hi-8 camcorder I bought at a sale at the public access studios in Minneapolis but it is no longer working. I'd like to transfer many hours of Hi-8 and 8mm video to digital via my mini DV deck. Anyone in LA have Hi-8 video gear lying around for loan, rental or sale?

My understanding is that Digital 8 gear will also play back Hi-8 -- Steven Gladstone New York Based Cinematographer Gladstone films Blog - http://indiekicker.reelgrok.com/ http://www.blakehousemovie.com http://www.gladstonefilms.com 917-886-5858 ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

It will should play back Hi 8 tapes and send them through firewire in the same format as DV; i.e. DV NTSC 720x480 29.97fps 48KHz sound. Probably easier than running a Hi8 cam through a DV cam. Make sure you set the sound to 48 khz, i think 32khz is the other option which can cause hiccups in video timelines. Ugghh 32 khz, also known as 12 bit. Because the cam manufacturers wanted you to be able to over dub in the camera. Nothing but headaches and out of sync woes. 16bit, 48Khz for sound in DV cameras. -- Steven Gladstone New York Based Cinematographer Gladstone films Blog - http://indiekicker.reelgrok.com/ http://www.blakehousemovie.com http://www.gladstonefilms.com 917-886-5858 ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
