Good day to you all,
I'm in the initial stages of buying a new laptop which I will use to record video live from a Canon HV40. At present I use the IEEE1394a connection and a six year old Dell Latitude.
Looking at the new Dell laptops only the very top of the range now come with IEEE1394 and the Dell sales rep says that using USB3 with an adaptor to IEEE1394 will work.
If I remember correctly Adobe Premier Elements and Pro are very particular about the connection for recording video to the HDD, so does anyone have any experience of using USB3 to IEE1394 with Premier Elements or Pro?
Looking around the various sources it seems that IEEE1394 is becoming a redundant technology!!
Many thanks,
Gerry
