This page presents information on how to use the lab's 2 Sony TRV-900 tripod-mounted digital camcorders. Some of the information is specific to user study requirements.

Tips

• To transfer the files from the Sony Digital 8 tapes, hook up the Firewire cable (under the camera in the metallic case) to the Firewire card. XP should detect the camera when you switch it to the Read mode (not filming mode). You can use the Windows Movie Maker software which comes with XP to 'record' the video image. Careful what format you select; it can compress the video to Internet size for you, if that's what you want.
