Actually when I was involved in this conversation, at least I think I was, I
said I was not aware of any difference between an iLink cable and a firewire
cable. I did things the easy way when I got my camera. I went to Wal-Mart
and bought a firewire cable plugged it into my computer and then plugged it
into my camera. Take your camera with you to a computer store and they will
be able to set you up with the correct cable.
