Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin IEEE 1394 4-Pin/6-Pin 400 Mbps FireWire Cable (6 Feet)
Customer Review: Works great for my camcorder
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased a Canon ZR850 MiniDV camcorder, which didn't come with a firewire cable, so I bought this one. Works great, even on the first try. No messy installations, just plug and play. I have not tried it with any other product. The 6-foot cord is a good length, I think 3 feet is too short (they sell this kind too). The computer I use it with is a Compaq SR1950NX desktop and it is completely capable. Remember, you have to check if your computer needs a 4-to-6 pin connection (one end is small, one end is larger) or a 6-to-6 pin connection. Good luck!

Customer Review: Pay for the cord or pay the Price!
Summary: 5 Stars
I do a lot of transferring of mini dv footage and having the right cord has proved to be very important. A lot of people are unaware that by buying a cheap cord, you are taking a chance at ruining your camera. It wasn't till recently that I had discovered that my fire wire port had gone out twice on my Panasonic. At first I thought it was the camera or maybe the computer. Then I did some research and found out that not all cords have a static guard. So what what happening is a static charge was generating and it sent that through my camera which disabled it's fire wire port function.
So don't go cheap. Buy a well respected name like Belkin, because you don't want to end up spending $200 just to fix a fire wire port!
Customer Review: Great product!

Good transfer speed for transferring video from my Sony Handycam!!
It took a lot of research and many full video tapes before I decided that this was what I needed to transfer video from my Sony Handycam. The problem was, the Sony manual only specified an "ilink" and gave very little information on what an ilink was. It took hours to find out that it's just Sony's name for a firewire cable. Then the question was "which firewire would fit my handycam and PC connections?" Pictures of firewires sold on amazon showed that this was the one.
It was pure heaven when I plugged it in and I was finally able to download video to my PC.
Customer Review: This is the best firewire I've used so far.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this firewire to capture video from the Panasonic DVX-100 camera to my Macbookpro. Not only does it functions well, it connects real easy, easy to plug in and plug out, and it stays firm when it's plugged in so the cable doesn't disconnect by a simple pull. Some other cable that I've used will create malfunction from time to time, either not connecting well and makes me loose my video signal during capturing. The Belkin firewire doesn't have that trouble. Plus, the pricing is a bargain. It's got the right quality at an affordable price.Customer Review: Satisfied Purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the Belkin FireWire 6 foot cable to use for transfering home movies from my Digital Hand Held Sony DV Recorder, and am very satisfied with the quality of manufacturing and cable performance.
The cable looks extremely sturdy and well-made, and has lived up to expectations without any hitches or glitches.
This cable, a DV recorder, a FireWire PCI card for your computer, Movie Edit Pro, and plenty of RAM in you home PC is all you need to begin capturing your home movies and turning them into DVDs.
