I need to transfer old dv tapes to computer for editing

[Dari]

I recently purchased a canon hv30 but don't want to use it to transfer old files since it isn't good to mix tapes in a dv camera. I was checking online but the prices for tape decks are so expensive. Is it better to just by a cheap but new camcorder with firewire for around $200 or are decks available for less?
