Amazing versatility! Not only does the DCR-TRV340 record beautiful studio-quality video onto inexpensive 8mm or Hi8 tapes, and play tapes from your old 8mm or Hi8 collection — it also gives you four ways to transfer video to your computer!
If you want to use separate software to edit home movies on your PC, use the i.LINK jack for speedy transfer of full-resolution digital video. For e-mailing, record 60-second MPEG clips to the included 8MB Memory Stick®, then send them to your PC through the camcorder's built-in USB interface. And if your computer has Microsoft NetMeeting® or other video conferencing software installed, this clever cam can compress taped or live video as Motion JPEG, then stream it over USB. This ability lets you use the DCR-TRV340 as a webcam, and even videoconference online!
You also get digital photo mode. Shoot 640 x 480 pics, save them to the Memory Stick, and transfer them to your USB-capable PC in a flash. You'll also enjoy the vivid 2-1/2" color LCD viewscreen, post-production digital effects, Super SteadyShot® picture stabilization, and Super NightShot®, which allows filming in total darkness.
