Canon has always made excellent gear. I've used their still cameras since the mid-1960's. But those camera work with film, which is far superior to anything digital, so I've never used a DV camera for video except to borrow a relative's Canon for an hour or so. I see that the HV30 handles both HD and SD, so it's a good chance it will work. Someone more familiar with such combo cameras should be able to advise. But note that DV is transferred to a computer by copying the original with a DV transfer device, not by "capturing" (re-encoding) it. But I guess you know this.
