What computer do you have that has Firewire? Oh crap. You know... I just assumed one of my three modern laptops would have one. Wrong. Well... I do have an old Windows 2000 Media Center era Gateway with Firewire. Hmm. I wonder if there's a way to record/transfer from Hi8 tape to the camera's internal memory stick then somehow transfer that over to the laptop? Maybe I now have buy/borrow a more modern desktop with Firewire? Supposedly USB 3 is compatible with Firewire's method of transfer but I've not researched that yet to see if conversion is possible. USB itself is not. - Jeff
