I have a Sony HDR SR5 that records to the internal hard drive. What is the best way to extract the video off the hard drive and archive? What about playback once it is extracted? Making DVDs will obviously not retain 1080i quality unless done with a blu-ray recorder. I have Sony Vegas 8.0 and the Software that came with the camera. I'm sure I am not the only one faced with this issue. How are others storing and playing back video content from these type of video cameras? Thanks in advance.

Anyone?
