No, the Sony CCD-TRV88 is not a digital camcorder. It is an analog camcorder that records video onto Hi8 tapes, which are an analog format.
However, the CCD-TRV88 does have certain features that make it compatible with digital workflows:
- Video Output for Digital Transfer: The camcorder has analog output ports (such as S-Video and composite video), which allow you to transfer your recordings to a computer or another device using an analog-to-digital converter.
- Playback Compatibility: If used with Digital8 equipment, some Hi8 tapes recorded on the CCD-TRV88 can be played back and digitized.
If you're looking for a digital camcorder, you'd want to look for models specifically labeled Digital8 or newer formats like MiniDV, AVCHD, or similar.
