The only way to get footage onto a DV camcorder via FireWire is to compress the footage to a DV movie. This is where programs like Premiere, Final Cut Pro, and DV Express come in. DV is just another codec that is specific to DV camcorders.

FireWire can also be used to connect hard drives. In that sense, it works like USB only a million times faster. user added image
