Yep it's true.
But not exactly : not all camcorders are restrained.
In fact, manufacturers have to pay a tax when they want to enable DV-in (because then it can be used as a videotape-recorder).
It costs money therefore they only enable it on high-end camcorders...
But if you search thoroughly the internet, you will find sites explaining tricks to enable DV-in ...
