The VDR-3000DV can accept a standard DV format however, Sony’s Micro MV DCR-IP7BT and the DCR-IP5 do not record in standard DV, the recording format is MPEG-2. The following information is from a review in Camcorder Computer Video Magazine Page 52, July 2002 issue. It explains that the Micro MV format is only compatible with other Micro MV products: “While some newer Mini DV camcorders include video-editing software, you will need the included Movie Shaker editing software, if you want to feed digital signals from the Micro MV cam into your computer. The FireWire (i.Link) output is not a standard one found on Mini DV camcorders.
