So for my Birthday my girlfriend gave me a Samsung mini-dv camcorder. She went with the bare-bones model which is fine with me as it'll probably see most of its use in the car recording autocross runs. The camcorder came with a firewire port, but no cable or software. I think compusa has decent prices on 1394 cables (looks like both ends are 4-pin), but once I have the cable then what? If I want to tweak around with the video or even compress it I'll need some video editing software right? Anyone with a PC find anything they like?

My Canon came with Studio 9 from Pinnacle, and I like it alot. It's very easy to use (I use ProTools at work, also made by an Avid division).
And the latest update lets you import video clips from DVD, so you don't have to store your original clips in your HD. Or at least that's why it's useful for me. Aria |
