You can make a digital "clone" of your DV tape directly
to DVCAM without losing anything. Or you can connect a
DVCAM VCR or camcorder to your computer and output
directly to DVCAM. I use a Sony DSR-20 (DVCAM VCR)
with DVCAM and mini-DV interchangably. On the Firewire,
there is no significant difference between miniDV and DVCAM.
