Thanx Daniel, Mark etc... My iBook was obtained via the Notebook for teachers program here in Victoria...and it didn't have a Firewire cable NOR a USB cable...the USB lead I now have came with the camera...
I guess Apple's not immune to reducing waste either as 90% of even Mac users may not find a use for Firewire unless they're aware of it...(which I was but stupidly forgot... it's my very first DV camera...and I'm happy that some ppl have post-recommended the MV-630i!) :)) Cheers, Kevin from Wycheproof. -----Original Message----- From: "Daniel Kerr"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "WAMUG Mailing List"<wamug@wamug.org.au> Date: Sun Sep 28 20:55:54 PDT 2003 Subject: Re: Importing DV from Canon MV-630i >On 29/9/03 11:56 AM, "Mark Secker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> ahhhh you should have got one with your mac... every Firewire >> equipped Apple Laptop I've ever set up has come with one... >> >> thick'ish see- through cable about 2M long with blue tinted banding on >> plugs. >> >> >> >> >>> Hi Mark, Reg etc.,, >>> >>> Just found the firewire port!
