You need a digitizer or a DV videocamera. There are two basic types of digitizers: Firewire and USB. Most camcorder that have the mini DV tapes also have the jacks to connect to a vcr and a firewire cable (also called iLink) goes from the camera to the computer. You'll need to check your camera manual for how to connect it and how to start the process) Generally speaking, the camcorder circuits handle the analog to digital conversion and iMovie and other video editing software have an Import button that starts importing footage automatically. As for the digitizer approach....Here are some manufacturers who make the little boxes that convert plain old analog audiovideo coming from your standard VCR and pipe it into your computer via a Firewire cable: In no particular order: Pinnacle, Canopus, AVerMedia, Dazzle/Hollywood, Plexor, Elgato) There are tons of additional features on these boxes. Some have a TV tuner so you can watch tv on your computer or use your computer like a VCR to record shows. Others allow you to compress video without putting more work on your computer's processor. The basic components you need are Inputs: Composite and S-Video. Outputs: Firewire (or USB) Composite and S-video
