Question

what do i need so that my samsung SCD80 digital camcorder can connect to a computer!

Answer 1

Your dv camcorder needs a firewire connection (ieee 1394) in order to download video, your PC probably did not come with a firewire port, so you will have to buy one and install it, since most computers (except possibly brand new) don't come with a firewire port, your camcorder did not come with a firewire cord so you have to purchase a cord too. Your camcorder did come with a USB cord and that is used for downloading stills from your camcorder.

Answer 2

The Samsung SCD80 is a miniDV tape based camcorder that connects using its DV port to a computer with a Firewire 400 port (also known as IEEE1394a) with a firewire (IEEE1394a, i.Link) cable. Typically 4-pin to 6-pin.

If your computer does not have aa firewire port, add one:
