[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1757739, member: 131855"] Thanks for that pic. It helped me understand what connection the camera has which is the part I wasn't 100% sure about. Should have thought about the smaller firewire connector. The adapter will probably work as I think the end it needs to connect to appears to be the same as what is on the PC. Unless you already have that firewire 800 to 400 cable there is another option that would cut the adapter out entirely snd simplify troubleshooting if it becomes necessary. You should be able to connect a [URL="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NH13K8S/?tag=macforums0e4-20"]Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter[/URL] to a [URL="https://www.amazon.com/firewire-800-4-pin/s?ie=UTF8&page=1&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Afirewire%20800%20to%204%20pin&tag=macforums0e4-20"]Firewire 800 to 4 pin cable such as one of these[/URL] and avoid that little adapter.
