is a highly effective tool, eliminating the time consuming process
of re-capturing Panasonic DVCPRO HD, DVCPRO50 and DV footage from
HD camcorder tapes into non-linear editing (NLE) systems.

internal rechargeable battery, connects directly to camcorders and
captures footage to its miniature high-capacity hard drive and to
tape simultaneously directly from the camera's FireWire port into
Quicktime, AVI files of your choice. When done shooting, set your
camcorder to VCR mode to QPLAY” the last scenes on the viewfinder
or simply plug it into your computer’s FireWire port and edit/play
directly on the digitized video at anytime.
