newbie capturing, show me the way: 8mm/VHS > DV

[nutshellml]

I'm sure this question has been asked and answered, but I couldn't find anything specific to what I'm looking for that is current. Here I go:

I am planning on converting old 8mm to DV using camcorder and projector, then further transferring the video onto my pc for editing and ultimately burning to DVDs. I also have many VHS tapes that I plan on converting into digital format. My CPU is up to the task (specification wise), but there are many choices and I'm looking for something under $300. I software I already have is Adobe Premeire, I believe that is more than sufficient for what I'm looking to do.

Can anyone point me in the direction of recommendations/reviews. Thank you in advance for any help....
