i need help! i am trying to get video footage onto my computer from this camcorder?

i have already watched the footage on my television, after having been recorded on the camcorder – i am not familiar with how this type of device works – i usually record short videos on my digital camera and it just transfers as a wmp file — can anyone help?

For that camera you have 2 options, a Firewire cable (if the camera have a Firewire port and your computer too) or a capture device like the Pinnacle Dazzle. USB is used in miniDV cameras only to transfer still pictures NOT video.
