In this week's podcast, SimplyDV founder and editor Colin Barrett looks at how you can convert your old VHS, Hi8 and Video8 recordings to digital video; there's also guidance on choosing and using tripods, and if you're keen on digitising all your image, sound and film or video keepsakes, you'll find details of a new book (of which Colin is a co-author) called "Go Digital: Keep the Past Alive!" just the thing to have handy.
