Ok, so right now I don't have a camera due to all 3 of our cams being seized by the police and I want to upload a bunch of footage. I was wondering if there's something you can buy, like a mini DV transfer deck which will allow you to upload footage via firewire to your PC (Ha, I have no idea if these exist...It just seemed logical).
Obviously I don't want to have to buy a new camera just to upload stuff so something like this would be ideal.

Anyone know if you can get these or anything similar?

I borrow Joe's every now and then but it takes the piss. Plus he's unreliable. :P
I'd rather have something else anyway, so when I get my XM2 back I don't have to use it to capture, meaning the heads won't be used as much or whatever.

I think there is no such thing. There is, actually, but costs more than a cam I think. They are not listed at amazon.co.uk, maybe only available in the US.

In Blade Trinity when that person films Blade killing a human she puts the footage on a computer using one of these. Try and find out what that is. :D

Grr, fucking gay.

I guess I'll just wait to get my stuff back. Or buy a really shit cam just to capture.

It's actually cheaper to buy a shitty cam, so do that if you have to.
