I just got a new Camcorder:

Panasonic PV-GS150 DV-- Came with USB Cable connection wire that allows you to upload movies from tape to your computer.

Unfortunately, this USB Cable connector wire only works with PC, So I need a Firewire IEEE 1394 wire that allows me to upload movies from the camcorder.

The question I am asking is that I dont know how to find the right wire (DV cable)input/output Firewire IEEE 1394. I need someone to specific this wire and I'll go to the store to buy one.

See Picture below:



Thanks!

The FireWire port is the one under the screen, labeled "DV". It's a standard 4-pin FireWire plug, so get a 4-6 pin cable.

P.S. Be patient, dude. Bumping twice in less than 24 hours is NOT appreciated.

I have tried to plug this camera into to a MBP. Tried USB and Firewire but the camera is not being recognized. Running Leopard. Thanks.

Enjoy the hassle... I'm running a d300, gaving a hell of a time... I'll try to get back to you if I get it working out.
