![]() At least, I believe it is a "firewire" cable - looking at page 9 of the camera manual, the connector I would use to transfer the tapes to my computer is referred to as a "Digital Video Connector (i.LINK) (IEEE1394-1995)." I even have the original firewire cable that I used to use to transfer the tapes to my computer (unfortunately, I was an idiot in college and deleted all of the transfers I once did!). I still have the original camera used to film all of these mini-DV tapes. In the research I did, it looks like FireWire is the only way to do a "perfect quality" transfer, correct? Any advice on the best way to do this would be greatly appreciated.* I do have one last step to take now - I have about 30 mini-DV tapes to digitize! I'd like to put the footage from my mini-DV tapes right on my computer as digital files (not on to DVDs). ![]() If anyone would like to see how I did that, here is the thread - I am fully satisfied with the results of what I did and the recommendations everyone here gave me:* I could not have done it without all of the help and support from everyone here! You are all far more knowledgeable than I will ever be, haha. I recently finished up digitizing all of the VHS and VHS-C tapes in my "home movie" collection! (45 VHS Tapes and 76 VHS-C tapes, a whopping 128 hours of family memories spanning 20 years! Pretty cool).
