Digital camera reviews of Belkin IEEE 1394 4-Pin/6-Pin 400 Mbps FireWire Cable (6 Feet)
Digital camera Review: Didn't sync
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this firewire cable to sync my Sony camera to my MacBookPro. The Sony was not recognized by my Mac. As I do not have any alternate electronics w/firewire output, I do not know if it is a cable problem or incompatibility between Sony/Apple.Digital camera Review: Do Not Buy this cable from Technology Galaxy
Summary: 1 Stars
The item costs $9 but they will charge you $16 shipping and handling. When I complained to Amazon they said I can return the merchandise but shipping and handling is not refundable. This Technology Galaxy will rip you off in a heart beat. I would give them a minus zero rating if there was a star for that in the rating system.Digital camera Review: Does exactly what it should. Very useful for HDTV boxes
Summary: 5 Stars
The 6' 4 pin to 6 pin Belkin IEEE 1394/Firewire cable does exactly what it says it should for relatively cheap. As long as you're at the 400 MB/s standard as this is, there's no need to spend $50 on a gold plated connector and superheavy isolation like the Monster cables. Firewire is designed to function up to 15' without signal degradation, and unlike analog signals the 0 and 1s of digital signals aren't subject to manipulation by electrical fields. Either they get through or they don't, so as long as these are certified under the standard you save money by not buying useless frills. It's shiny translucent silver, not black, but if you care that much about cable color you probably already have your cables hidden anyway.
The 4 pin models work with most electrical powered devices; the 6 pin models usually are for devices that need battery power. (The extra two pins carry current.) For those looking for an adapter for Comcast/Motorola HDTV-ready digital boxes, this is the cable you need. For some reason Motorola decided to use a 6 pin adapter, where almost all HDTVs and DVHS VCRs use a 4 pin. (PCs typically use 6.) I've used one for a while now to run flawless 1080i signals between my Comcast HDTV box and my DVHS VCR. Recommended.
