What deck do you have? Sony DV tapes work fine in that camera, but stick to the same tape brand.

I shoot in HD, and tried other HD cameras, but none would work. What is going on? Is it something on my camera or something to do with final cut. I am considering selling the camera if this issue can not be fixed. So far no one can help me. Also, I want to clarify,.... I only use sony DV tapes, but the camera shoots in HDV. if the tapes are not HDV does that mean my footage is not HD?

My problem is that when I record in 24fps, the sound does not synch with the video and so it looks like bad dubbing in a foreign film. Anyone know how to fix that problem? As for Patrick's issue and the capture being broken into 30-50 pieces, that is what usually happens when I download my cheaper Sony Camcorder video, but downloading the XHA1 video into i-movie on my mac works flawlessly. Don't give up. Help. My problem is that when I record in 24fps, the sound does not synch with the video and so it looks like bad dubbing in a foreign film. Anyone know how to fix that problem?

They are terrible. I would record a one-hour video, but when I try to capture the HDV to my computer, they would be broken into 30 or 50 some different pieces, which means I lose lots of frames. I tried all different kind of DV tapes, but none is problem proof. I never had that problem with Canon GL2. That was the reason I bought these XHA1. I made a mistake of buying two Canon XHA1.

I have the firewire cable and Sony Vegas 8.0 editing software but other than that I am a complete amateur and do not know how to do it. Any ideas? Thanks.

Either a 4-4 pin pr 4-6 pin depending on your computer's connection. You’ll need a Firewire cable. Either a 4-4 pin pr 4-6 pin depending on your computer’s connection.
