32 min is if you shot in DVCAM mode. Shooting in DV mode, or HDV, then you get a full hour.

Yes, you can shoot HDV, then capture HDV, then PRINT TO VIDEO HDV. It will need to reconform, and there will be slight quality loss, but it is possible. HDV is not normally a mastering format, so it isn't too straightforward.
