How to transfer/edit video from a Sony DV Camera?

I have already bought a firewire cable and successfully connected the Sony DV camera (DCR-TRV10E PAL w/ memory stick capability)to my laptop using the firewire port. The device is recognized as Microsoft DV camera/VCR on a IEEE 1394 port.

How can I import the video I recorded to Adobe Premiere 5.5?
Should I use a specific driver for the video camera?
Should I buy the DV card?

Thanks.
 
If your computer recognizes that your camera is connected you should be able to capture video from Adobe Premiere. You should not need a specific driver for your video camera. And "buy the DV card"? What does that mean? If you are connecting it to your computer already...why do you need a DV card?

Have fun and prepare to waste tons of time editing your video (speaking from experience).
 
When I try to capture video using Adobe Premiere, it only captured the audio, no video.

What I want is to edit the existing video that was recorded and saved to the DV cassette earlier.
 
I'm not 100% sure but I believe that 5.5 had some issues with DV cards. It is all fixed in Premier 6.
