Hi guys

Is it possible to stream live picture from the camera mode (not player mode) of an mini dv camera Panasonic nv ds60 I read somewhere that some models can do it. What i wanna do is basically capture what my camera is seeing trough firewire in digital format and recording it with windv (without recording it on the dv tape my tape system is broken). I don't have firewire cable now. The camera has analog video input and you can use it as analog digital passtrough ( as some here do). But can you record what camera lens see it trough firewire. I tried it with Svhs cable in to analog tv card and it works but can you use firewire so you get digital dv file.

I am asking this because the camera says it can record ( probably on the dv tape I guess ) in progressive 24p mode and I plan to use it as real time 8mm film transfer.

Thanks
