I always het a sense of nostalgia when looking at the videos these 'vintage' camcorders produce. I'm lucky to be a bit of a hoarder, and old enough to still have some of these cameras I bought new many years ago. I still get them out now and again.
I went on a bit of a collecting spending spree and bought many different models last year, all mostly in great condition. I have still been yet to take one outside to record though because they're a bit bulky and also a bit worried about some getting water damaged in the unpredictable british weather. Going to do a full haul video at some point though surely
was here to see camera but shed a tear instead. people have this much fun in life? Where am I for these 23 years? I am sorry but I am feeling heartbroken. Every second of this video broke me. The amount of happiness oozing from this video is intolerable to me. I never had a moment like this in 23 years. Never felt this, probably never will. World is beautiful but without bondings it's colorless. I feel like Ayanami from " Evangelion "
My old CRT tv from 1979 have better audio than my brand new tv, old speakers and microphone had more bass also some worked with Cathode producing a really quick quality at high volume but really bad quality at low volume. So yes it's indeed good :)
I bought a bunch of them last year to try and get a collection of most of the good spec models I wanted before they became even harder to find but haven't yet filmed anything like this
I have a DCR-TRV350. Pretty much one of the best Handycams ever made because you can digitize analog video onto Digital8 tapes or onto your computer without losing quality.
Recently found the camera that my grandfather gifted either to me or to my brother ages ago, totally loving it. The videos this camera makes turned out to look like Blair Witch Project. Sadly, no sound, but I can find the solution. It's flash is so bright that night sky becomes brighter in the photos
Nice video bro! I just got the same camera about 2 weeks ago, is there any setting I have to record in for it to look good when I convert it into digital ? When I record a video and play it back the video itself is small and the rest of the screen is blue ..
Thank you! Not that I’m aware of? Maybe double check your aspect ratio? I know mine is cropped on the sides and then I stretch it out in post. It’s only blue when I put the tape in
Hi I’m a trying to start a yt channel and I was wondering how you were able to use this song without being copyrighted? There are so many songs I want to use but don’t want to get a strike lol
Hi, you only get copyright strikes once you start monetising your videos. For that you need a certain amount of subscribers and views. There are ways around it once you get to that point though with certain music subscriptions
@@_matt_hammond_ ah okay so did you just link the song when you posted this video? Also how can I find out more about how you found that way around it, Because everywhere I check they all say no matter the subscribers I’m still going to get a strike
Using a filter won't be the same as using the real thing. The smooth framerate and optical zoom simply cannot be replicated with an app on a smartphone.
Thank you! I used a digital to usb converter that I ordered off of Amazon. I connected the camera to the converter using the cable and screen recorded the video on my laptop
@@_matt_hammond_ do u need a cassete for this setup? ive seen people buy things that directly convert into an sd card using a screen capture device while filming. if u do need the cassete, do u just re use it after u upload a video to ur computer?

Nothing wrong with procrastinating here and there but a lot of fun can be had
The song with the Sunset just supplement eachother to Make perfection

You got a new subscriber because of this vintage retro video i really like this kind of camera result even though i am genz
Such creative videos you’ve on this channel. Just subscribed!
Appreciate that! Thank you 🙏🏽
hits hard really hard
i ❤ the vibe of your camcorder
Reminds me of the old UA-cam, good old times...

I went here because I saw a super nice shop that sells vintage camcorders, and I wanted to buy oneeee so this really helped me decide what to geeet!!!
Glad I could be of service 🫡

I'm getting my own Hi8 soon and I can't wait for it! Not sure if vintage is the right word but you guys got some nice footage with your camcorder.
Maybe nostalgic is the word I was looking for. Sounds good, they are awesome
You inspired me to make videos like these throughout my 20s. And maybe for my 30s, 40s, 50s....till death do me and the camera apart 😂
🤣 that’s what I like to hear!!
Looooove this!
This got me 😂

Sadly, no sound, but I can find the solution. It's flash is so bright that night sky becomes brighter in the photos
i got one then realised it was 480p and everyone was using the 720p ones that were 300 more
It's actually 480i. 720p can only be found on proffesional HDV camcorders made in the early-mid 2000s.
Funny how people dont change i saw vlogs from the 80's and 90'd and it's the same things
Giving outer banks
