Learn why you should transfer your video with FireWire!

Post by ThirddOracle »

Read this! After that you will stick to tranfer your videos with FireWire, NOT USB 2.0!

I think that D8 uses USB only, while DV and HDV use firewire. With firewire being the obvious choice for several reasons.

What software supports importing video through firewire? What camera and program do you use?
