Hello, I'm looking for an entry level (or close to it)
Mini DV camcorder that has the analog in (pass-thru) feature so that I can digitize my old HI8 tapes.

I might be open to other formats but I want to keep the
price below $300. I've seen the Canon ZR200 online,
for $239 but it's a few years old.

Or this one, if it's available where you are:-

Sony DCR-HC62E

NOt the cheapest here in the UK, though.
