Is there any way to import directly from a camcorder to a hard drive while recording?

I am a video blogger on Youtube. I use a Canon Vixia HG20. I was wondering if there was any direct way to import from my camcorder as I am recording to my hard drive on my macintosh computer. This means my computer will act like my camcorders hard drive.


Answer
From your consumer grade camcorder to a computer? Not unless the computer has HDMI or Component video inputs (most computers, including your computer, do not). Consumer flash memory and hard disc drive camcorders do not have firewire connectivity.

MiniDV tape based camcorders using a firewire connection to the computer can do what you want.

Please note that this is not a Mac-specific issue - the same can be said for any operating system.

What type of burner do I need to make CD's from a Soney Camcorder Hard Drive?

My son bought a Soney Camcorder with a hard drive and he wants to burn his video's to a CD.


Answer
CDs don't hold a lot of video, the DVD burner is what you want. Computer type DVD burners generally can handle CDs as well so they are a good investment.
