PD 150 Firewire Cable

Sam Rider · June 6th, 2008, 09:52 AM

I have lost the cable that connects an old pd150 to my computer (I am now trying to use the camera as a dvCam drive). I think this cable is called an "I link to Firewire 400 cable." Do you know the correct title for this cable?
Thanks

You most likely need a 4-pin to 6-pin FireWire cable if your computer is a desktop.

If it's a laptop, then you probably need a 4-pin to 4-pin FireWire cable.

Either one is pretty easy to find at any electronic store.

Hi Sam,

That is correct you need the firewire cable from 4pin to 6 pin for The PD150.

Hope this helps.

Unless you are one of us Mac laptop guys, then you need a 4-pin to 6-pin Firewire cable, just like a desktop.
