Composite Cables It might not be the best, but most cameras have composite (RED, WHITE & YELLOW) RCA jacks that let you put the camera in PLAY mode and pump the signal out. The DVD recorder should have composite in RCA jacks. Hook the three (two if your camera is MONO) cables up, set your DVD to use the composite as a signal input and record away.

Assuming that you have the camcorder and a PC (just small assumptions, I realize)... Your computer shouldn’t be more than 3-4 years old unless it was very high spec. To begin with. You need a fairly fast processor, at least 512mb RAM and plenty of free space on your hard drive.

I say this as normally you would temporarily store the video on the hard drive so that you can edit it. Your camera should have been supplied with some basic editing software. If your computer struggles with the size of the files, break it up into smaller segments.

Once you’ve completed editing then follow the instructions of your DVD burning software for burning DVD video files. You should know that you will loose some quality when you burn to the DVD because of compression used. Also, DVDs are not stable for archival storage purposes - some experts claim a 2 - 5 year life span.

The original tape is the most stable and highest quality long term storage. Look after that tape!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
