Hi Frenz

I have a sony handycam which is bought some long time back.. i think its in 1998..it doesnt have a option to connect it to a pc.. the model is Sony Handycam DCR TRV310E...now i want it to connect it to pc such tht i can capture the video and burn in to CDs or DVDs, while going thru ebay i found a FIRMWIRE card which do this.. As i dont have much idea abt this... i want help from you guys,can this card do the work which i need and also abt the clarity factor....below im giving the link for the firmwire

Its FireWire Card... not Firmwire

anyway, Refer to ur Handy Cam manual whether it has IEEE 1394 support or not....

I dont thing those Older Models comes with this support...

Check if it has a DV port(I think it has).Get a firewire card and a firewire cable and use this excellent tool WinDV (http://windv.mourek.cz/) to capture to your hard disc.
