Neil or others, Can you output to analog with a camcorder with passthrough? I use my Canopus converter quite often. Not too much for going from analog to digital, but it is used frequently to output to analog. Many people still ask for a VHS tape. The converter saves me from copying to the camera, then again to VHS. My Sony TRV-900 does not have passthrough.
