Got this camera from my dad it was his old camera and funny u made video on this but recently i filmed with it and didnt realize how bad the memorystick duo video quality and lagginess of it, Great review btw
hey man thanks for the video very informative, recently picked up one of these from the thrift. was wondering how you exported your videos from the camera? this is the one thing i cant figure out! thanks heaps in advance
Great Video! Just wanted to know: I have the same camera from my dad aswell alongside multiple miniDVs and I was wondering, can i watch the footage through the usb connection? I don't have the cable so i thought i'd ask before buying it :)
whats up bro! sick vid. Im not sure if u remember but a couple vids ago i commented asking about problems with the SD to Video ion thing. So i just ended up ordering a new cable and turns out that was the only problem. Thanks for your help bro! it works amazing now
Hey thanks man and yeah I don’t think the cables that come with the ion video 2 sd are any good. Mine ended up losing video signal as well as an audio signal.
Not with this camcorder but some of the Sony mini dv camcorders can like the dcr-pc110 and the dcr-trv22 but you can’t get very many files saved and the video looks terrible
How do you export the videos at 60 fps? I am using a memory stick and it exports them at 25, it is exactly the same camera, I was wondering if you export with minidv tapes, but I don't know
Cant do it with the mini dv. Recently ran into the same exact problem you did lol with the same camera. Sd cards just arent good with videos, pictures only. Youd have to transfer it with the mini dv but neither have i figured it out yet
Hey Brandon, I got a message on this handycam saying i need to clean the tape head; i've ordered one tape head cleaner but it'll take 2 weeks to arrive. Can i still record the videos on the mini dv cassete? or should i just not use it till i get the tape head cleaner?
i have this same model camera. The touch screen does not function (of course)🙄 I don't know what Sony was smoking that day they thought only making the playback functions accessible via that touchscreen was a good idea...
Yeah the screen is touchscreen and these camcorders have issues where the screen will stop detecting the touch of your finger and you can’t use any of the camcorder functions from the touch screen. So therefore playback will not work you will have to put the tape into another cameras to watch the footage
No I don’t think so I think these models and similar ones have defective screens and the eventually stop working because the one I have is the exact same way
Hi sorry for the late response. I use a video converter called the clearclick video 2digital 2.0. And you’ll need a Sony specific av cable to transfer the footage.

@@brandoncameracollection thaaaaaaat is cool and so super rare...hope you make videos from that....yesterday i bought from ebay a brand new ,unused sony dcr hc 96e, i am so happy with this camcorder😊
I yeah those are pretty cool little cameras. I’m gonna guess it’s from the mid 2000s? And is it touch screen? If it is I know they can have issues with the touch screen not working
No In the early days of sd cards you could only take pictures I think because the cards had extremely low capacity like 2-4gb. But there are some Sony models out there that can record video to the Sony memory sticks. Ones I know of off the top of my head are the dcr-pc110 and the dcr-trv22. But the video quality is honestly terrible
I need to know if the function “AV -> DV Out” is ON by default or Off. I found a cheap one but with a bad screen and I need to know if it comes “ON” from the factory or not Please help!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 The manual does not specify it
@@brandoncameracollection ye i have the same exact and for some reason touchscreen zero response and it sucks not to able to view old footages without that
Yeah literally like 85% of the camera functions are accessed from the touch screen. Which is really dumb. You’ll have to get another mini dv camera to watch your Footage
I have the card and all the accessories but I have the model with the yellow orangery color viewfinder, handycam station and the compatible computer to DV cameras... 🙏🙏🙏🤣🤣🤣

quite informative and fun my dad just gave me this sony camera and this helped me with the basics also very cute puppers and kitty :)
To get to the menu you have to turn off the easy mode, then press the button says "P-MENU" and you will find there.
By the way nice video!
Got this camera from my dad it was his old camera and funny u made video on this but recently i filmed with it and didnt realize how bad the memorystick duo video quality and lagginess of it, Great review btw
Yeah mine actually doesn’t have a working touch screen so I can only shoot in auto mode. And mine is also my dads camera haha
@@brandoncameracollection and my touch screen doesnt work either lol
Did you find a way to increase the quality?
@billiesayid yeah I’ve been using the Sony mrc1

No unfortunately the usb cable is for transferring photos from the memory stick
Been watching ALL UR VIDS at work lately! Love them all, just got a GL2 and use it on my channel for skating and fingerboarding!
Yooo thanks for watching man, I’m hoping to get a gl2 at some point as well. How does it work for fingerboarding? Are you using a fisheye with it?
@@brandoncameracollection yeah man it works like a dream, 58 mm opteka, got some vids up if u wanna see!! My latest vids all use the gl2
For sure send me a link 🤙

Can I record videos directly to memory stick duo card without using mini dv casette?
Dcr h32e
Not with this camcorder but some of the Sony mini dv camcorders can like the dcr-pc110 and the dcr-trv22 but you can’t get very many files saved and the video looks terrible
I had this, the HC42, the PC55, and finally the HC96 before switching to the HC9.
I really enjoy the pc models
What is the maximum capacity of memory stick duo card for Sony dcr h32e?
4 gb. Or 8 gb.?
Please feedback me
Thanks
I want to say 4gb but you might be able to find the manual online and it might tell you the biggest size it can take
How do you export the videos at 60 fps? I am using a memory stick and it exports them at 25, it is exactly the same camera, I was wondering if you export with minidv tapes, but I don't know
Cant do it with the mini dv. Recently ran into the same exact problem you did lol with the same camera. Sd cards just arent good with videos, pictures only. Youd have to transfer it with the mini dv but neither have i figured it out yet
Yeah definitely use mini dv tapes. The clearclick video 2 digital 2.0 and 3.0 captures at 60fps
yesterday i get one for $2 haha, now it's time to learn how digitize the tapes
@skanglw it’s pretty easy with these recorders. Good place to start if you’re just starting out with retro camcorders.
Hey Brandon, I got a message on this handycam saying i need to clean the tape head; i've ordered one tape head cleaner but it'll take 2 weeks to arrive. Can i still record the videos on the mini dv cassete? or should i just not use it till i get the tape head cleaner?
Yeah it won’t record anything to the tape till you clean the tape heads. That or the footage will be very glitchy
@@brandoncameracollection Thank you for getting back! 🙏🏼
footage is super sharp considering you're using the Clearclick
hopefully someday you'll use firewire capture to compare the results
I want to use FireWire I just need to get all the adapters and figure out an easy software to use
@@brandoncameracollection ah i see, well keep us updated!
For sure I will
hey the screen of my camera does not turn on, do you know what it is due to if it is fully charged?
The Sony hc series usually end up have issues with the screen. Usually the touchscreen stops working but I’m not sure why it’s not turning on.
Bro i have question How do I connect this to the laptop?

Nice video but is the camera really that smooth?
Yes I filmed everything hand held
i have this same model camera. The touch screen does not function (of course)🙄 I don't know what Sony was smoking that day they thought only making the playback functions accessible via that touchscreen was a good idea...
Ever figure out the menu problem. I cannot seem to find how to even set the date, time and playback ect?
Yeah the screen is touchscreen and these camcorders have issues where the screen will stop detecting the touch of your finger and you can’t use any of the camcorder functions from the touch screen. So therefore playback will not work you will have to put the tape into another cameras to watch the footage
@@brandoncameracollection Is there anyway to troubleshoot this issue? My cam lost its touch screen ability
No I don’t think so I think these models and similar ones have defective screens and the eventually stop working because the one I have is the exact same way
Does this camera take SD cards or any type of memory cards ?
It takes sd cards but only for pictures 😕
hi. how do you transfer the pictures & videos to pc? planning to buy one
Hi sorry for the late response. I use a video converter called the clearclick video 2digital 2.0. And you’ll need a Sony specific av cable to transfer the footage.

Please help!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 The manual does not specify it
I’m not sure on that either. I would assume so
What is the name of the battery?
Not sure what the model number is but this battery is compatible: amzn.to/3Aox3pk
did you find out why touch screen didnt work ?
I’m not sure why but I know that the hc models have issues with the touchscreen not being responsive

lol cam has touchscreen
Do you need a memory stick to record video? Or just for taking pictures?
No you’ll need a mini dv tape to record. The memory sticks are for photos only
@@brandoncameracollection thank you! Love the video by the way! It’s awesome and super helpful!
