What you have there is a very old camera with a 10-pin adaptor that connects to a VHS deck. It has an excellent lens and some good manual controls, but without an old VHS deck with a 10-pin connector, it's worthless. If by "recording equipment" you mean you have the deks, then you're good to go.

Since this is an analog format you're going to need an analog to digital converter in order to get the image to a computer to edit. Check http://www.smalldog.com/product/12650788

Yes! I have the tape decks

And that was a great help
Thank you so much!

Also
Is this to advanced for me, or is it something good to learn on?

Are these cameras complete crap? lol
I got them really cheap, so I figure they are

That camera is about 20 years old. Complete crap? No. But very different than DV cameras today. But at their core all cameras are the same: they have an iris, a shutter, a lens for focus and a medium to record the image. So you can learn about those things with any camera.

It really depends on what you want to learn. If you want to learn the operation of current DV cameras then that 20 year old camera is useless. If you want to learn how to light video to get the effect you see in your head, any camera is good. If you want to learn how to put a movie together from writing the script, to casting the actors and finding crew, to working with both on set, to securing locations and gathering props and costumes, to recording good sound, to post production, then the camera isn't important.

I've never used that camera. From the look of it, it appears to be a consumer camera from the 1980's. It looks as if it was made to be used to take videos of family vacations and birthday parties.
