Essential adaptor for connecting legacy FireWire equipment such as camcorders to a Mac. I used this for coverting miniDV tapes with great success. You may need to also purchase a Thunderbolt 2 to 3 adapter if you are using a more recent Mac.
The Genuine Apple A1463 Thunderbolt 2 to FireWire 800 Adapter (MD464ZM/A) would be the best fit for professionals or enthusiasts who require a fast and reliable solution for connecting Thunderbolt 2 devices to FireWire 800 ports to extend their connectivity range and bandwidth capabilities.
