This is literally what I was looking for! I just found the old vintage camera that my parents used to record when I was just a little kid and I knew there was a more modern and convenient method to record without tape. Thank you so much!

@fubbesibiz 5 месяцев назад

That nostalgic look is unmatched haven’t found any filter that even comes close to it to turn the normal 4k into something like this. Definitely will be around for some time

@TylerCaseyProd 5 месяцев назад

I still have my Sony Hi8 and a regular Sony 8mm. I still have tons of blank Hi8 tapes. That's a cool Idea to set up. Less wear n tear on the gears. In a few months, my younger cousin wanted me to video her wedding with the same Sony Hi8 I used to film her when she was a baby. She wants the "vintage look". This idea would be a lot better when editing the video later.

Here's a better setup (This is how they do it in the movies), get a HDMI converter, and then get a 4K Monitor/Recorder. This is what I do, and the quality is actually insane. I use a Sony TRV72 HI8 camera into an ABLEWE HDMI Converter into an Atomos Assassin 7, and it looks amazing.

@TylerCaseyProd 8 месяцев назад

Hahahaha when you mentioned accidentally re-recording over footage - i got war flashbacks A month or two ago, i was recording a live show onto Video 8 and captured one of the most epic finales ive seen After their set, i rewinded after the performance to show the band the final song they did Then i started recording the next band Went home and woke up the next morning Watched through the whole performance, only to realise i forgot to rewind it back and i rerecorded over the BEST part of the video tape

Merci beaucoup pour cette idée... J'ai un caméscope qui n'enregistre plus très bien (parasites audio) et j'ai donc fait comme vous j'ai fixé sur le dessus du caméscope un petit boîtier qui sert à transférer les vidéos sur carte SD et cela fonctionne très bien. Encore merci et bravo😊

@pavlosuchite4614 6 месяцев назад

i have a 6 volts camera so i used a motorcycle battery, a little heavier but you know it is cheaper and one gets more minutes to film. i did that and it worked you can do your own research obviously. remember 6 volts there are gel and acid batteries idk if there is some other material. you can make something with a 3d printer to place the battery along the camera or just be creative. and even if the camera required voltage is more than what the battery can bring it works . because of the amps but again do your research. hope it might help

@kevrosas1 8 месяцев назад

It’s easiest to get a DV cam and do the FireWire out with the Sony MCR1. Surely the hi8 character can’t be recorded since most of that comes from the tape itself. My comment is regarding a tapeless set up.

@ogcidman911 2 месяца назад

I like the build. The problem is I can’t seem to find a good 90’s tape camcorder that doesn’t turn off after about 4 mins due to inactivity. Sony, Panasonic, JVC - many of them seem to shut off because they think nothing is happening even with tape in the cam.

@TylerCaseyProd 2 месяца назад

@bluerabbit1236 4 месяца назад

This was a great diy video. No fluff straight to be point with clear instructions so thank you for this man 👍 On a side note, alternatively you can just shoot the video modern way and then record it on a vhs tape and then transfer it back to digital. It looks exactly the same and you'd have both versions of your film, one modern high resolution look and the other one being the nostalgic degraded look, so you could sell both versions of your film and maybe even make the nostalgic one as an exclusive copy for retro lovers. Also this method authentically degrades your audio as well so it requires no need to fake it in post at all.

There’s an option on most hi8 to keep it on regardless if there’s a tape in there or if you don’t press record. I know mine has that option.

So just to be clear, the camera just needs to be on and in view mode, and the clearclick converter just records the stream ? Or do both need to be recording?

Just the stream sometimes if you camera keeps shutting off you can record at the same time. You can take the tape out and sometimes change some settings to get it to stay on
