Connecting a digital video camera
Your notebook has an IEEE 1394 (also known as Firewire or i.Link) port that
can be used to connect to a digital video camera. To find the location of the
IEEE 1394 port, see “Left Side” on page 3.
To connect a digital video camera:
■ Connect one end of the IEEE 1394 cable to your external source, such as
a video camera, and connect the other end of the cable to the IEEE 1394
port on the side of your notebook.
After you connect your digital camcorder to your notebook, creating a video
DVD typically consists of three basic steps: capture the video, edit the video,
and record the video to a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc.
