video uploading from camera
Where is there a product that I can get that can hook into a camera that takes 8 milimeter tapes. A product that can take videos offa that and put on to a computer.

8mm with digital out? you sure?
anyhow, just get a firewire card (if you indeed have digital out), get video-editing soft. and capture the tape.
IF you only have something like S-Video out, you can either look for a capture card (that captures S-Video), or get/borrow miniDV camcorder, use it to pass-through the signal from the digital8 (or whatever you have) and capture with fireWire this way. (firewire card is 10$ in case you don't have built-in)
yo may have prblem with sync to audio if there are dropped frames though.
in case you feel like I'm talking in a language you don't quite understand, you should use some pro-services. (open yellow pages and look for video standard conversion and duplication services, companies that offer those things usually perform the thing you need to be done)
g'luck
