Capturing off Video8 is no different to capturing off MiniDV, if you use a Digital8 camera.

I shoot on full-size DVCAM as well as HDV occasionally. Yes, it's 576i or 1080i depending on which you use, but you'd be surprised how good that looks with a decent lens and a bit of care in shooting.

The bad old days of de-interlacing and post-production with avisynth. I've shot and watched more videos since cell phones, thanks to the immensely improved UX.

I use ffmpeg. I had a play with avisynth years ago but it hasn't been updated in about a decade.
