I have never in the past worked with a camera of this type earlier and am a bit confused. I have shot a strip of footage that I choice to edit. How do I walk about uploading it onto my computer from the cassette?
Answers:
Your dv camcorder needs a firewire nouns (ieee 1394) in establish to download video, your PC probably did not come with a firewire port, so you will hold 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 next to a firewire cord so you have to purchase a cord too. Your camcorder did come beside a USB cord and that is used for downloading stills from your camcorder. By connecting a firewire (IEEE1394a, i.Link) cable to the camcorder's DV port and your computer's firewire 400 port.
Since we don't know what computer you own, we don't know if you need to tag on one.
And the camcorder needs to be surrounded by playback mode.
No, USB will not allow video transfer from the miniDV cassette.
