Review: It Works - Worked exactly as specified. Allowed me to erase an iMac drive before recycling.
Review: Reliable & Economical Firewire 400 to 800 Adapter - The Firewire 400->800 and Apple Firewire 800 to Thunderbolt 2 arrived on time and as described in the product write-up. The Firewire 400->800 adapter is compact, and one of three or four adapters you'll need to chain together to convert DV Tape to digital movie for storage on an iMac or the cloud. Since I have an older and newer iMac, I already had some cables. First, I connected my JVC DV camera to the DV->Firewire 400 cable included with the camera. Second, I connected the Firewire 400->800 adapter. The fit from the Firewire 400 plug was tight. At first I thought it wasn't fitting correctly, but pushing it in firmly responded with a satisfying "click". Finally, the Firewire 400->800 adapter was plugged to the Firewire 800->Thunderbolt 2 adapter (also pictured in the second photo. This plugged into my older iMac. I turned on the camera's power, loaded a tape, and started iMovie on the iMac. Using File>Import in iMovie started a new window showing my JVC GR-DVL510U camera. iMovie provides all the controls for the camera. Total setup ~10 minutes. NOTE: Conversion is in Real time. The entire conversion worked flawlessly with the converter!
