Do you folks use or find useful for videotaping psychotherapy sessions for the purposes of supervision?
I used to use a Sony Handycam with MiniDV tapes, but it would take another hour to burn the video to DVD and now at my current institution, our lovely IS department removed all the DVD burners from our computers so I have to bring the tape and camera to my home computer to burn the DVD to watch during supervision.
I'm looking at a Sony that records directly to the 8cm DVD, but it looks like they hold only 30 min of footage. Anyone use this format for hour long sessions (maybe lower quality image??)?
My whole purpose is to be able to record a session and then bring a DVD or miniDVD to my supervisors office so we can watch it on the computer. I don't want to be dragging around a camera that the computer may or may not recognize as an input, or to make my poor supervisors watch it on the tiny 2.5 inch LCD. I also don't want to spend an hour at home burning footage to DVD.
I've got educational fund money burning a hole in my pocket, so hit me with your suggestions!
