Hi Guys

Are any of you aware of any cheap-as-possible HDV camcorders that are compatible with the playback of XH-A1 tapes please? This would help me a great deal with capturing my material simultaneously on two different computers due to the sheer bulk of it!

Any thoughts really appreciated!

Peter

EDIT: Just spotted a Sony Handycam HDR-HC3 which seems to play back HDV - it should be compatible right?
