can anyone tell of a hard/software that will let output 3d-studio targa files to a sony 801 hi-8 camcorder.

Rodger, Outputing to a camcorder, I will assume that it is not capable of single frame recording. (A few of them are, but I doubt this one is.) Since you will be recording "real time" the tool you are looking for is a VGA to NTSC scan converter. There are several on the market, ranging in price anywhere from $300.00 to $2000.00. The differences in these boards lie in the quality of the video signal that is output, the ease of use and installation, resolutions available, etc. Perhaps other people on the forum will make some specific reccommendations for boards, and warn you which boards to stay away from. My only word on the subject is you get what you pay for.
