I read these guides on how to digitize VHS tapes, but I have questions regarding my setup.

I have VHS tapes and 8mm tapes from family videos from 30 years ago. We have about 30 VHS tapes and 15 8mm tapes.

I own a: Sony Trinitron FV310 CRT TV Memorex Camcorder 16-855 Canon G1500 camcorder

Tapes: VHS tapes Supertape 8mm HG-120 cassette Maxell 8mm video cassette

With my setup, what's the best way to digitize these 8mm tapes and VHS tapes considering my setup? People talk about full-frame TBC, but I'm not 100% sure what that is, and what the recommended devices are. The same for a VHS player.

Thanks in advance for the help!
