[MacDV] Digital Dubbing

[Juan]

I did it once about two years ago with two Sony entry level DV video 
cameras.

The sony manual actually showed how to do it.

I think all I did was plug in the 4 pin to 4 pin firewire cable (some 
sony cameras actually come with that cable) run the video on one of the 
cameras and hit the record button on the top of the other camera.

Check CompUSA, staples, etc. for this cable.

bingo, it was done.

good luck

Juan
