Review: Fast delivery, works great for Sony Digital8 video transfer - This type of card is what Grok recommended I buy as an inexpensive way to capture a bunch of old home movies from a Sony Digital8 camera. The iLink port on the camera is a firewire port, and this card is the firewire adapter for my (fairly new) PC. Also bought a 6 foot cable to make sure it would reach from back of PC to the camera on the desk (this card comes with a similar cable as the one I needed, but much shorter). This card along with free software WinDV and I'm now transferring those old tapes digitally to my AVI clips on my PC without loss of quality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You'll need lots of storage space!
*by B***L on January 20, 2025*

I got this LinksTek MiniDV card for my computer to transfer my huge collection of tapes. I have a Lenovo tower and a Sony DCR HC32 camera with a power base. This allows me to use MiniDV to transfer. When installed it did not automatically sense the card. I did have to install some K-Lite Codec to get my windows 11 to find it. I also downloaded WinDV 1.2.3 to do the actual transfers. I used the included cable which is a 6 pin to 4 pin. It did not would for me in either port. I have a 4 pin to 4 pin cable so ai tried that and bingo. Make sure you click the checkmark next to the capture button on WinDV so when you click capture it controls your camera. I suggest creating a folder for each tape and just let it do it's thing. Any breaks in the tape it will just make a new video in the folder. Please note that you will need lots of storage depending on how many tapes you have. Each full 1 hour tape is 13 to 14 gigs of data. Works great and I am a quarter of the way thru my tapes. It lots of fun to see some of these that haven't been watched since they were shot. Enjoy!
