What the hell?

[The Godfather]

Yeah ok, i bought a Firewire cable, and my friend said that every Canon camera has a port.. Well, i have an ES8600 Camcorder, and i can't find it..

You realize there's a mini-firewire connector that looks like this, right?

 

[The Godfather]

No, but that doesn't help, i still cant find the port in the camera. Where the hell might it be? Shouldn't all cameras have it?

Give pics of camera?

[toekramp]

there may be a small plastic piece that can be removed on the front of the camera

 

[Cooler]

you have been watching too much stroker and hoop.

 

[Eeezee]

Try harder?

ES8600 = Hi8 = Analog = No Firewire

I dont have a photo digital camera to take any pictures.

Could it be behind the battery?

I looked up that model: considering that it's not a DV camera, it probably doesn't have one.

It's not a digital camera, so it does not have a firewire port.

You need a RCA input-output.
