Don't know what size firewire cable to buy!!!!?

Question

I have two different computers, one is a gateway with windows vista and the other is a velocity micro with windows vista. My video camera is a sony handycam HDR-SR5. There are so many different choices for firewires and I have no idea what size to get. If anyone knows anything about these, please help!!

Answer 1

I don't think the HDR-SR5 has a firewire port.  So far as I know you have to put the camcorder in its dock and connect the dock to the PC via USB - it doesn't even have its own USB port!

Answer 2

you;ll need a 6 pin to 4 pin firewire lead.

Answer 3

Do the computers have firewire capability??
