Importing video from Xl1 canon into my Mac

Hi, I bought an XL-1 camera and I'm trying to use the Playback to import video onto my Mac. I got Final Cut Express. But when I open Final Cut, it says there's no recognition of a Firewire connection. What type of firewire do I need? Where does the cable enter on the XL-1? HELP!!!

Importing Video to a Mac

XL2s are notorious for issues in interacting with final cut.
Simply put, sometimes it will work, sometimes it won't. But - there's a way around it.
Change the capture settings preset to 'non-controllable device'. Use the shuttle controls on top the handle of the XL2 to play back the footage as you wish. when you want to capture, click 'Capture Now' - It should do the trick.

Canon

You don't actaully need the camera. If the DVD is not copyrighted simply put the DVD disc into your mac and copy the biggrest file (usually marked video.ts) You can then drag and drop this onto your Final Cut timeline.
