2-Port FireWire
IEEE1394 CardBus Card For Laptop PC
This
Firewire PC card is a necessity for connecting a miniDV
camcorder or other firewire device to your laptop PC. A firewire cable runs from your
camera's DV port to your laptop computer with this card installed so you
can start the video transfer or other data transfer right away.
This new interface card maximizes your use of the
ultra-fast firewire-enabled hard drives, iPod, zip and optical drives, scanners,
printers and many digital video/audio devices like DV camcorders, HDTVs, and digital
cameras. It transfers video as a perfect digital file copy, free from the
risk of conversion loss or image degradation during the transfer like the
regular analog video connection.
Digital Video Audio Transfer To PC
The DV
video and audio can be exported from DV cam to PC together
in sync through one single firewire cable. In the world of video editing, Firewire-enabled
camcorders or digital cameras remove the user's worry about the
video & audio out-of-sync problems.
When you choose to use the
Firewire connection for digital AV transfer into your laptop/notebook computer, it saves
you the need for costly
analog-to-digital converters and frame buffers. The audio track is
transferred along with the captured digital videos in sync through one
firewire cable, unlike capturing the analog video sources, which you will
need to deal with video capture and audio capture separately with
different cables and jack adapters between the video source and computer.
