Since you did not tell us what computer… a TV capture card might work… but better than that are “Analog/Digital bridges” from Pinnacle (Dazzle) or Canopus.

Teens got a chance to use the library’s digital camcorders to document their finds on a scavenger hunt in the New Haven branch. Here teens show off the Staff Picks shelf.

ok so my sis just got a new Jazz DV151 Digital Camcorder. It has a slot on the right side with initial SD; and that’s where she’s supposed to inject the card. But one problem; she doesn’t know where to get it. She doesn’t even know what kind of card to get really. She looked for the papers that were included with the camera but she lost them so help me plz!

Answer by Skyhawk
Walmart sells them. So do most electronic stores like Best Buy.

You need a SD/MMC card

You can get a 2G for $ 15

Here’s what they look like:

Answer by snowwillow20
You can get them at Walmart, bestbuy, fryes, target any where that sells camera an computer stuff. She should get a 16G or a couple of 8G sd cards, they come in different brand names. SanDisk, Kingston and Transcend are a couple that come to mind.
SD stands for secure digital They are memory cards the same kind you would use in a digital camera that takes sd cards, sd cards bigger that 2G are considered sdhc or Secure Digital High Capacity.

Answer by Robert F
Any SD card will do.
