[MacDV] Digital video/analog converters

[Ken McNamara]

Forget the converters.  I've owned the first 2 and they were both junk. 
The Dazzle was pretty bad, but at least it had a driver to let it talk
with the G4.  The 'For Mac' product was the closest thing to braindead
I've seen - For Mac, their name might as well be ForGet it.

I finally settled on a Sony Digital 8 camera - Excellent conversion and
the G4 talks to it.
