[QUOTE="RobDreugan, post: 37360"] heh, yer saying alot of things that aren't quite right. 1st. You wouldn't have 1.33 megapixels as your CCD. Your CCD is a charged coupled device, that consists of a chip, or 3. Some cameras say they have a 1.3 or a 1.5 ccd, which hey if it's really that, great. But basically, you either have 1 or 3 chips. 1 chip interprets the RGB by itself, the 3 ccd cameras have a chip for red, green and blue, and thus are able to generate a better picture because it can capture more information at once, thus giving you a broadcast television camera, rather than a consumer camera look. The difference is pretty clear. My point in explaining that is, recording to tape or harddrive makes no difference. The medium with which you are capturing video to, cannot accept or reject any information that the camera captures. That is to say, if your camera captures 3 minutes of crystal clear 3ccd footage, it will look exactly the same whether you capture to a hard drive or a miniDV tape. And ya, you can capture to a harddrive, via firewire. [/QUOTE]
