I have a panasonic digital camera model NV-GS11 and want to know how to transfere video shots from the camera tape to the computer
Answer
Hi Essam:
The Panasonic camcorder you have (NV-GS11) is a Mini-DV cassette model using FireWire (IEEE 1394 "DV" port) for digital video output. So for transferring the digital signal to computer, you need a FireWire port on the PC.
From a couple of your earlier Yahoo!Answer posts, you've mentioned having a Dell Inspiron 1000 laptop (the past 5-8 years), which does not have FireWire built-in. But that laptop does have a PC-Card accessory slot, which can accept a FireWire card (typically $15-$50 USD online or on eBay).
If you have a newer laptop or computer, it might already have FireWire capability; if not, then a simple FireWire accessory upgrade will be necessary to best transfer your tapes to computer.
Read the Wikipedia article listed in my Sources below, so that you know the proper cable type to use between the camcorder and your PC. (A FireWire 4-pin plug at one end is needed for the camera connection; the other end will either be 4-pin or 6-pin, depending on the PC's port or adapter card.)
As far as video editing & transfer software, your Windows XP came with "Windows Movie Maker", which can be used along with the FireWire interface to import and edit your videotapes. Other editing software (Sony Vegas, AVID Pinnacle Studio, Adobe Premiere, etc.) is also available for this task.
hope this helps,

What would you say is the best performing laptop?
Austin
Okay, I am looking into buying a new laptop. I don't want to spend more than about $1,400. What do you think is the best performing laptop in the price range. Pretty much, all I do, is watch video's on youtube, myspace, stuff like this(yahoo answers), I want to learn how to edit music, I already edit pictures and stuff. Normal teenage stuff. (:
What type of laptop should I choose?
Answer
a macbook would be suitable for you though the price would be slightly higher than that, dppending on where you live...
though a standard laptop from almost any manufacturer would be good for you, examples include acer, dell, HP, lenovo, etc...
