Does Sony Handycam have a USB cable?

How to Import Videos from SONY Handycam DCR-TRV14E Camcorder to Computer via USB Cable?

  • I have a USB cable that is currently plugged into my laptop but I don't know how to transfer the videos to my computer via the USB cable. I have it plugged in and it is not doing anything, nothing in the my computer folder either! Please explain in a simple way. Thanks :)

  • Answer:

    Hi, I am a videographer. I can answer your question: You can't import your video on a USB. Why? Because it is a miniDV. They shall be imported by a special cable which is usually not coming in the same box. It's called firewire. Why? Because videos contain a lot of information, more than just a USB can take. When you transfer the video to your computer, it is real-time transfer. Means 1 min video takes 1 min to transfer, not longer, not shorter. So the amount of information must be transfered to your computer in a precise timing - USB can't do that. So you need to buy a cable for your camcorder then you need to open the movie editing software to capture.
