Despite the convenience of hard drive and miniDVD camcorders, I would stick to the miniDV tape camcorders. You will need to capture via firewire, and that cable doesn't come with the camcorder. You can pick up a good one at Best Buy or other stores like BB.

I have a Sony DCR-HC96 and really like it.

Life is good!

I guess that you're going to get smacked again.

And,since this site is in English, you need to brush up on it, a little, if you're going to spam the site.

If you mean hard drive, and not High Definition, then there is nothing special that you will need to dump the video onto your computer.

You will use the USB cable, that comes with the video camera, and your computer will pick it up as another hard drive, and you simply copy the files, to a folder on your hard drive, just like you would copy files from one location, to another, on your computer.

If you are talking High Definition, that is a different animal. You will need software that can handle Hi-Def, a Blu-Ray burner, a Blu-Ray/DVD player, and a Hi-Def television.
