sony HDR-XR200V HD

[maxstrains]

I have the same camcorder, and I need some help. What did you use to convert the video and what did you convert it to?

[RelientKrox1]

@maxstrains i used movie studio to import it as avchd and rendered it as .m2ts file. the software that came with the camera also can convert it to a wmv file.

@maxstrains @maxstrains Hey the Sony HXR-NX5U NXCAM uses AVCHD aswell. So if you download the K-Lite codec pack, you can view the files natively in media player. also if you must, editing in windows movie maker. But I recommend either Sony Vegas (Pro or Movie Studio), Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro HD (If on a mac). I hope this helps. And also if you want to view more footage from the XR200, and what the footage could look like, watch this: youtube(dot)com/watch?v=ORkUM1­8QS-8

@entouchgraphics - I sold the camcorder a few days ago. Got tired of converting. Got a new Sony HandyCam 16x9 camcorder.

Looks good

do you recomend this camera?

[RelientKrox1]

ya, its pretty good

[oodayvidoo]

hey relient... would you mind me asking what is your pc setup meaning specs/hardware (ie ram, cpu, etc) for editing? cuz i'm using a decent hp w/ 2 gb of ram w/ a 512mb vid card... not sure if that would work good enough.

Can you use windows movie maker to edit video footage?

[RelientKrox1]

no, not this file type, you will have to convert it to a supported file.

[omyajt]

Ok thanks. I'll check into that. By the way, maybe you've already mentioned it, what do you use for editing.

[RelientKrox1]

vegas movie studio platinum 9.0

[omyajt]

thank you!

[IAPOD]

is that exspansive?

[RelientKrox1]

around 85$ US depending on where you get it

[IAPOD]

k thanks would you recomend this for little comedey skits like a 1 camera 10 min high def shoot or would you think step it up a bit?

[RelientKrox1]

I would recommend it, it has a lot of different options and effects for editing. I got it because my camera saves the files in that new AVCHD format and not many other programs support it

[IAPOD]

ok thanks will do.

[rmunoz1994]

$600 if you get it from pc richard and son...$900 on the official sony website

[RelientKrox1]
