I'm hoping for a little purchasing advice here...
I need to buy a VHS deck with firewire connectivity so I can put some older VHS material into my computer and edit a reel together - I figure I'll need it eventually for something in the future anyway so this is just pushing me over the edge to go out and get it. There are some factors in this decision. For one, should I grab a VHS/miniDV deck so I don't wear down my GL2 as a miniDV deck? These seem to go in the 1000-1200 range while a plain VHS with firewire deck seems around 300-500... I know about B&H and I guess I could go to a lot of manufacturers websites, but are there some other websites you all can suggest to look through some products? B&H has only a couple options, and being a poor just-out-of-college dude I need to comparison shop.
Thanks in advance.
