RE: What is the Best Way?

Hi,If your digicam is capable to record .MPEG files, this task
will be quite easy. Remember to choose the 640x480 recording mode
and don't record more than 2 minutes per file, it's preferable
to shut the button and record more 2 minutes of the scene and so on...
The amount of files been restored will depend on your memory card
storage capacity, it's recommendable at least a 128 or 256 Mb unit,
or both, if you can afford ($$$).
If you have Windows XP installed onto your PC,
you may use Windows Movie Maker (accessories) to convert your videos from .MPEG to .WMV format.If you want, take a look on my videos page, there are some of
them available for download, featuring my train trips being done
during my vacation.Hope this helps,Yours,
(Now with videos)
