Review Summary: CAN connect to PC

Overall Score: 4/5

Review: I bought this Samsung VP-D351 XEU MiniDV camera for making home movies, and everything was going fine until I read the review above, which says that it doesn't come with any connections to PC. I then had a look at the specs on the samsung website, which are very detailed but hard to understand. In the end I downloaded the manual and it said that no, it didn't come with any connections, but you can buy a 4 pin firewire cable to connect to PC, which the camera supports and has a socket for. [If you don't have firewire on your PC, like I did, you can find them very cheaply through amazon.]
Anyway, the camera itself is great, the zoom is exellent and easy to use, the picture when you plug it into the TV is really good quality, and the design is excellent.
The only problems I've come across so far are that it comes with no tapes [again, look to amazon], and you can't immediately connect to PC.
All in all, I think it's a good buy, but if you don't want the hastle of buying firewire, get one of the next models (VP D352, 353, 354 etc), which all have USB connectivity.
