  1. See Sony support to download a manual, tutorials & live help. See the link below>>>


  2. If anything firewire. MiniDV cams need firewire to connect to a computer. Your computer also needs firewire. Most new computers and laptops have it. It looks like the square shaped plug on your cam with like a v indent. On a laptop it would look the same, on a desktop it looks like a elongated pentagon shape.

  3. usb

  4. Consult your manual....

    If it's an HD camera then it should connect with USB.

    If you have a mini dv (cassette) camcorder….

    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.

    If you have a mini dvd camcorder….

    You will have to finalize your dvd in the camera and then put the dvd in your computer 's DVD burner (top loading only) and then you will have to convert the files (i downloaded handbrake file converter free) and import them into your editing program. Use the HELP feature in your editing program to learn about editing. Once you are ready to burn, your project will be burned to a different DVD and you can file the original away.

    If you have an analog (VHS) camcorder…

    You need an analog converter, either internal card or external such as the dazzle. It's very easy to use and come with good software. You would hook your analog VHS camera to the analog converter, the dazzle and then hook the dazzle to your PC. The dazzle cost around 70.00 , but worth the money if you have a lot of VHS to tapes to convert.
