## Description

Product Description A portable MiniDV format recorder, with integrated 4-inch color LCD display / Memory Stick, i.LINK(R) & USB ports desertcart.com The Sony GV-D1000 video walkman does it all, recording as a digital VCR using the MiniDV format, while also playing back people's favorite clips on the included 4-inch LCD screen. The MiniDV format is a favorite among digital videographers, as it offers three times the color bandwidth of traditional VHS video, giving it enhanced clarity and realism. The device also includes a memory stick media terminal, to which a user can record digital still images in 640 x 480 resolution from videotapes, through the analog input, and from digital video. The memory stick makes it easy to transfer images to personal computers for e-mailing, printing, or sharing with other digital devices. The recorder also includes an iLink output for direct transfer between two devices equipped with an IEEE 1394 interface, such as computers, camcorders, or digital VCRs. Other features include an MPEG movie memory mode--which captures compressed MPEG1 video with audio onto a memory stick--a USB port that delivers streaming video over the Internet, and an editing mode for manipulating up to 20 scenes. Users can convert analog NTSC video to digital format through the analog inputs, or directly to a PC using the iLink interface. The GV-D1000 doesn't skimp on audio, either, offering 12-bit/16-bit recording that sounds as clear as a compact disc. Users will also appreciate the crystal-clear pause mode and slow motion playback, along with the playback zoom that allows editors to enlarge, crop, and resize images.

Review: A surprising good shopping experience - I received the the Sony mini DV player in very good working condition, although I was surprised to get it without the battery charger/converter to AC. I contacted the seller and he immediately offered to purchase one for me. He did and I received it a few days later. What I thought it was going to be a battle, turned out to be a good experience. I was impressed with the seller's right attitude and customer service. I will definitely consider buying from him again. Luis D.
Review: desertcart is a place of discussion of product situation. - I love that the viewing of the product is clear. I dislike it came incomplete. Lacking was the DV cable, and no information or a picture of the kind or size of Memory stick it used, no picture or idea was given to me, so I spent lots of money ordering the wrong items. I wanted to record video off from the mini DV to a good storage system. I was informed it would have at least one of these things. I did not do a review then, because I was away and had not taken a picture of the Sony Product., and I already bought video cameras not realizing they were also without the DV cable. So this was another blow to me again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I play miniDV cassette with it.**
A: Yes! I own two, one for travel and one stays with my computer.  MiniDV tapes play excellent on the GV-D1000. It does not play miniDV HD.  Sony has a newer model that plays miniDV HD.   I also use my Sony GV-D1000 to transfer movies from VHS, Beta, DVD and Laser to my computer, then burn a DVD from that which is transferred to my hard drive.  It also has an S-Video with the standard composit (RCA connections).  I should mention that I use Macintosh computers with the iMovie program that comes with the iMac. I hope this information helps you.  Robert H. Kreger

**Q: Como encuentro lo que me indicas que sirve para las cintas mini dv hd el  hvr-m10u no esta en amazon**

**Q: My question is: does this video walkman  sony gv-d1000 play hd tapes ? i think the answer is no. does sony gv 700  play hd tapes?**
A: The gv1000 does not play hd tapes, but the Sony gv700 does play hd tapes. You were right in thinking.  Robert Kreger

**Q: Can this thing play mini DV 60?**
A: Hi Yael, thanks for your email, it plays any standard format miniDV tapes, does not play high definition miniDV tapes. please take a minute and read the listing before making any purchase.
I can assist if you email me the model # of the camcorder you were using as the most common mistake people do to buy equipment base on the tape not the format that the camcorder recorded.
Tapes do not speak what format they were recorded onto, the model # of your camcorder does.
Take care, Norman from I & N electronics.
