Ok guys, I think I have narrowed my dvd recorder choice down to the Pani DMR-E85H. The Sony GX-7 was also in the running and overall I think it is actually built better but the HD issue just doesn't seem to go away.
I just don't think a recorder without a HD is a good choice for me. The convenience of it just makes too much sense.
Having said all that, one thing I would like to do with it is transfer my Digital8 movies to a dvd. The Pani does not have a 1394 connection and is causing me pause. I know the DMR-E100 has it but I don't want to spring for it, besides the DMR-E85 seems to add many of its features in a new model.
What quality loss are we talking here if I transfer the Digital8 video in S-Video instead of by DV output?
Thanks
