I have a sony digital camcorder and need a firewire cable to connect to my pc, I need a 4pin to 4pin cable, all I can find is a PS2 to PS2 link cable which is 4 pin to 4 pin, does anyone know if this will work to connect my camcorder to my pc

I am not sure what is "PS2 to PS2" but in US ( I see that you are from UK)you can search for example in BestBuy.com for
