transferring films onto MiniDv

I want to transfer some films off my Mac onto MiniDV. What hardware should I buy for this? Are there any cheap MiniDv recorders out there?

You'll need a FireWire plug, for starters.

Most modern computers come with one, standard. If yours does not, you can get a FireWire card to pop onto the computer's motherboard.

I don't know about cheap dv recorders/decks, but most mini-DV camcorders should do. If you're just using it to import/export video, there are plenty of cheap models. Family-picnic style. Just make sure it has a FireWire plug on it. (A few models don't)

Then you just need a cable to connect it to the computer. :)
