Using DVD recorder to capture Analog

[GREGORY CIAMPA]

Have a lot of 8MM tapes which I want to upload to my HDD and edit and burn
to DVD via WMM.

I can purchase a DVD recorder for <$100 and upload the tapes and burn DVDs
.... my question is how easy is it to then import the images from the DVD to
WMM? Thanks Greg

====================================
Seems to me that you could upload
directly from the Camcorder. Maybe the
following articles will offer some ideas:
