digital8 and mini-DV camcorders store as Digital Video on tapes.... either
one works great with Movie Maker via a firewire connection.

You'll have conversion issues with camcorders that record directly to DVD or
to a hard drive in the camcorder....

QuickTime Pro can resave the MOV files as AVI, then you can use them in
Movie Maker.

Thanks Jessey... you're doing well for checking ahead of time. I see too
many posts from those who didn't and are wrestling with conversion issues.
