sorry if this is not allowed on your forum but I am very new to this
I have just bought a canon 830i digital camcorder and also own an analogue samsung camcorder, the canons instructions say I can connect the two camcorders together and transfer all my HI 8 tapes to mini DV tapes, and I can also connect the two together and transfer my old tapes to my PC using my new canon as a digital conversion tool. the trouble is the instruction manual is unclear and I do not know what cables to use or how to set the cams up ( my old samsung only has an AV socket)
jessops sold me two double male inline connectors and told me to connect my old and new cams together using the AV sockets ie yellow to yellow and red to red, this did not work.
So can anyone please help me with this.
Thanks in advance Steve.
