Hi everyone!

The problem I've had for a while now is that I have a crap load of old Hi-8 camcorder tapes with lots of memories on them.

I now have a mini dv camcorder and no way of playing the old Hi-8 tapes.

I've asked everyone I know if they have a suitable camcorder and no one has.

My question is:

What are my cheapest options of extracting the footage from these cassette (preferably onto my PC)

Thanks in advance
