Hi,

I've been thinking of getting a wireless video camera/receiver combo like the eyecam or similar. From what I can tell these units only offer a composite out from their receivers. MY problem is that I have a JVC miniDV camcorder. The only input I can use to record this camera is through an ieee/firewire cable. Is there any way to convert a composite cable to an ieee/firewire cable? i.e. take the composite out, convert it to ieee, then input it into the camera? Alternatively, is there a receiver that outputs digitally through ieee?

Thanks alot.

Yes, but these things are so expensive you would be better off just buying another recorder that can do a lot more. Expect a good $300.

Never seen such a thing.
