Does this camera use the mini dvd's to record and play

No !! they take mini Dv tapes who are very outdated and were always expensive. I have a ton of footage of my familyusing mini dv tapes. I need to tranfer them to a regular dvd so they can last longer. Im not sure how long those mini dv tapes will last.

No it doesn't. But you can hook it up to a TV that has the ports & hook up a VCR or DVD player with record features & do it that way if you like. You can get picture & sound recordings. Hope this helps.

No, these are the "normal" DVDs. Single sided 4.7GB, of course not rewriteable either. And they are not the mini's for the Sony cameras. These are the DVDs used in DVD players, standalone or computer types.

No. The Camera Uses Mini DV Tapes To Record HDV or DV Video. Card Is There For Capture Of Still Shots Only. It's A Great Camera!

Your videos will go on the mini dv tape only. Memory card is for pictures only.

I used mine to record a recorded movie to another DVDR. I had trouble going to the beginning since it does have a resume play. I even took the disk out and shut off my player. the disk I was playing kept starting over

Yes, it does videos -- one of my grandson's favorite features. It did not come with a micro card.

yes it has a movie record mode for short videos that does a fairly good job with sound also. The sound is a little quiet on mine but on my dad's (same camera) the sound is better

No, there is no video record feature. But it plays just about every video file I've ever tried to play on it. I love mine. I use it all the time.

If you can hook up your camcorder directly to the DVD Recorder, you should be able to convert your mini dv tapes. You need RCA output from your source to RCA input onto the DVD recorder.

Yes, it does. I have been using dvd recorders since they first came in the market and were big clunkers. You can program a recording, time etc. just like a vcr, but you don't have to rewind looking for a program. Soooo much better.

the more resent ones ( and i don't remember which number it is ) do not record as well. i have had many that my dvd can't read and it is a cheap progressive dvd player. hope this helps.

It did in the beginning and then it just quit playing them. I took it to the Geek Squad and they were unsuccessful in getting it to play DVD's again. Evidently, it has something to do with the Windows 8. They told me that I could buy a Video Media Center from Microsoft to resolve the problem but since they were not able to install a "Free" Video Media Center, I declined their offer.

No, I don't believe so... It has one regular HDMI on the right side, a side flat USB labeled "Service" (don't know what it's for off hand, but you could probably find a manual online), 2-3 regular HDMI in back, RCA in back, component in back, round s-video in back and digital audio in back. It's not quite at an angle where I can get all the way behind it, but I'm 99% sure there's no mini or micro USB, just HDMIs and a regular USB for "service" (whatever that means), and RCAs for older VCRs, DVDs, etc. Hope that helps.

Hi Jennifer, It only records video. Although they quality is fairly decent enough for you to take stills from it. Hope that helps. Desi
