Firstly, your PC need to have a Firefire 1394 interface, secondly need capturing software (like Adobe Premiere) to do the transfer from cam to PC. This cable is easily available; likely you need a 6-pin to 4-pin type. Connect the cam to PC is quite straightforward. Do note the file size after capturing is going to be quite huge, so sufficient HDD space is required.

The Cam shd come together with a capture software, if not, then u need a capture software like vegas, adobe premier etc, for capturing and editing. Together, u need a firewire.

To have the best results, must have atleast 1g ram, best is 2g and above. And alot harddisk space. Advise to have allocate some 50g for massive capturing.

If need help, post again. Check have fire wire card behind or not your cpu.
