Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.
The 9-pin connectors on FireWire cable 800 are part of the FireWire 800 (or IEEE-1394b) technology, which is a recent improvement to the IEEE-1394 technology.
Data can now be transferred at up to twice the speed of the original IEEE-1394 standard thanks to the enhancements to the specification.
The 9-pin connector has square corners and is rectangular in shape. On one side, there are five pin contacts, and on the other, there are four pin contacts.
The older 4-pin and 6-pin connectors can be converted to this new connector type. The maximum transfer rate, however, will be 400 Mbps after adaptation.
If you have a DV to Firewire Cable for a Digital Camera, SLR, Machine Vision Camera, or other device, this is an important cable to have.

Questions & Answers

I'm having trouble getting the plug on the cable to fit into the dv in/out jack on my Sony DCR-SRX100. camcorder (trv230) It appears that the shapes are similar. Do you have any advice or suggestions? Is there a problem with the plug?

The cable should work with any camcorder that has a standard IEEE1394 port for 4 pin connections. Other customers have told us that the IEEE port on their camcorder (of a different model) is too small for the 4 pin cable. If you can wiggle it in, do so gently; otherwise, you may need to contact Sony to see if they have a cable of their own.

I'd like to upgrade from an older Mac desktop to a new MacBook Pro. Is this the wire through which all files will be transferred?

You might want to take a look at this ASIN: If your new and old imacs both have firewire ports, you can connect them with a 9 pin to 9 pin firewire cable. If your new imac does not have a firewire port, you'll need a thunderbolt to firewire adapter.

What is the best way to use this on a Mac? I plugged it in and used my recorder to play the video, but nothing happens on my Mac?

You can also use QuickTime, which is also included for free on your Mac, in addition to iMovie. If you're just doing a simple import and don't plan on doing any further editing, I'd go with the latter for the sake of simplicity, as iMovie can be intimidating if you're not familiar with it.

, May I inquire as to where it is manufactured? What country do you admire the most? Thank you very much. ?

China is the most likely location.

AN EXCELLENT INVESTMENT
5/5

I recently rediscovered my circa-1970s wardrobe. Sony Digital Handycam DCR-2000, Sony Digital Handycam, Sony Digital Handycam, Sony Digital Handycam When I tried to preview some old family tapes on my PC100, it crashed. I then decided to import them into the iMovie app on my Macbook Air, but I was missing the cable (4-pin). pin to 9- To connect to my Mac Thunderbolt adapter, I needed to use a 4-pin Firewire cable. I discovered this cable on Amazon and placed an order for it. I plugged it into the camera and the AirBook connector (Apple Firewire to Thunderbolt), and it took seconds to download files from my camcorder into iMovie. What a great way to keep old tape files safe without having to pay $10 for shipping. $15/tape. It saved my life!.

The Sony Digital 8 is compatible with the MacBook Pro 2010, which was released in 2010
5/5

If you have a 2010 MacBook Pro with 9 pin firewire input and a Sony Digital 8 Camcorder with ilink 4 pin firewire, this cord is a must-have. It saves so much time, transfers at the highest quality from tape, and most importantly, separates into different clips and date stamps them if you use iMovie on Mac. All you have to do is press the import button in iMovie, and it will take care of the rest. This is something that other people don't do. I tried Evgato Video Capture and Transfer, which captures and transfers the entire tape as a single large clip at VHS quality. Also, the clips have no date stamp. If you have a newer MacBook Pro, you will only need to purchase one or two adapters, depending on the year of your MacBook. Adapters can be found on Amazon. I just so happened to have one of my older MacBook Pros still working. I hope this information is useful and saves you the time it took me to figure everything out.

Transfers digital video and audio from old DV iLink camcorders
5/5

The cable merely fulfills my requirements. I needed a way to connect my old Sony DV camcorder's 4 pin iLink "firewire" connection to a 9 pin cable so I could transfer old home videos to my 2016 MacBook Pro. The relationship: "Bizlander DV Firewire Cable 800 4pin to 9pin" Bizlander DV Firewire Cable 800 4pin to 9pin Bizlander DV Firewire Cable 800 4 "Apple Firewire to TB2 cable with 9 pin connector" "Apple TB2 to TB3 cable" is a cable that connects two TB2 drives to a TB3 drive. usb- My MacBook's c port. This enables me to transfer DV footage from the camera to the computer via Quicktime or other software. It's not the most elegant solution, but it gets the job done.

Excellent cable that does exactly what it claims to do
5/5

I had an old Sony DCR-AVCHD camera that I used to take photos with. TRV250 was given to me as a gift by a family member, and it came with some video that I wanted to transfer. I also have an older MacBook Pro from early 2011 that has a Firewire 800 port (IEEE 1394). A Firewire 400 port (IEEE 1394) is available on the Sony. This cable was a total success. Using iMovie (Version 10. 2), I was able to connect to the camera and control it from my MacBook Pro. 12). What a low-cost method of retrieving the old video. br>br>The cable is well-made and will more than likely outlast my need for it. I'm confident that it will work with other cameras and devices that use the same interface that I own.

Just what I needed to give an old camcorder a new lease on life! I had an old camcorder that I needed to use to transfer video from a digital audio cassette to my Mac Mini
5/5

Fortunately, the old Canon could transfer data via Firewire. Instead of adapters, I prefer specialized cables, and this one had the right fittings on both ends for me. br>br>Plugged it in and it worked like a charm. br>br>Will certainly recommend it if it meets your requirements!.

This is ideal for connecting old FW equipment
5/5

I have an old tape-based digicam, and this cable was my last/only option for connecting it to my Mac and retrieving old footage. br>br>The good news is that the cable is in excellent condition. The bad news is that communicating between a 2020 OS and hardware from before 2000 is difficult, and the tape itself may have degraded. oh well. br>br>However, the cable deserves special mention because it was reasonably priced, arrived quickly, and performs admirably.

It WORKS! [This]- [Apple DP] – [Apple DP] – [Apple DP [Apple USBC] - [Apple USBC] - [Apple USBC [Apple MacBook] I purchased this as part of a set of connectors to transfer video from an old JVC iLink camera to my Mac
5/5

Yes, it works with those other two extremely expensive Apple brand connectors to convert from FireWire to USBC on modern Macs. br>br>At the end of the day, the price was a pain, but the videos recovered from the camera made up for it. I now have video of my children when they were very young. Now, 20 years have passed. 🥰😍. preserved in perpetuity.

From hi-tech to hi-tech 8 camcorders connected via Firewire! With this cable, I can now digitize all of my family videos from my Sony Hi-Def camera
5/5

I'm connecting an 8 camera to a late 2015 iMac's firewire port so I can control it with iMovie! There's no need to invest in any software or hardware. For the cable, it was only a few dollars. LOVE IT! Thank you! br>br>.
