Hi

I have just bought a Panasonic NV-GS17 Mini DV camcorder.
It has not arrived yet but I want to be prepared for connecting it up to my PC for editing.

I have bought a IEEE 1394 card and a firewire cable.

However I have read that some people who have bought this camera have had problems with both USB and Firewire.

Can anyone tell me if the NV-GS17 connects up to the a PC (using Vista) with relative ease using Firewire ? What will I have to do once the firewire card is fixed and the firewire is connected to the camera and PC ?

Has anyone here connected a NV-GS17 up to a PC via firewire that was successful ? Did you have any problems.

Also as I have Vista will that lead to problems while connecting this camera via Firewire ?

If I am likely to have problems with Vista while using Firwire I have another computer with XP on.

I would be so grateful if anyone could help. I'm quite worried.

Many thanks

Miles
