Firewire Webcam For Mac

USB Video Class (UVC) Cameras

Any USB Video Class (UVC) camera should work in Debut. Mac OS X has had native support for UVC devices since version 10.4.3. If a camera works in PhotoBooth, iChat or FaceTime out of the box, then it is most likely UVC compliant. Most new USB cameras are UVC devices.

Non-UVC Cameras

Firewire 800 Mac

Debut is able to support some non-UVC cameras using an open-source driver named macam. A list of cameras supported by macam is available at http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/cameras/index.php.

To use a non-UVC camera in Debut:

  1. Download the latest macam disk image from http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/downloads.html.
  2. Double click the dmg file (e.g., macam.0.9.2.dmg) to see the contents in Finder.
  3. Launch Terminal (located in /Applications/Utilities) and run the following command:
  4. Enter the administrator password when prompted.
  5. Quit Debut if it's already running.
  6. Connect the camera, launch Debut and press the Device toolbar button. The non-UVC camera should be automatically used if there are no other connected devices. Otherwise, it can be selected in Preferences -> Devices.

Video Capture Devices

Some USB video capture devices, such as the SIIG USB Video/Audio Capture Device (http://www.altoedge.com/video/siig-video-capture2.html), can be used in Debut. Third-party software is usually needed to make them work. For example, VideoGlide (http://www.echofx.com/videoglide.html).

Easily connect your Thunderbolt-equipped Mac to a FireWire device with the Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter. Small and compact, it connects to the Thunderbolt port on your Mac computer, giving you a FireWire 800 port that supplies up to 7W for bus-powered peripherals like. I am just curious if anyone own's the ' Unibrain Fire-I Mac Firewire Webcam ' I am looking into buying one, but haven't really been able to get a good review of this product. I just want to know if its good, and has a decent video quality. I can't use the new iSight due to Apple's system. OrangeWare FireWire IIDC Camera driver is designed for FireWire web cameras on all Mac OS X operating systems version 10.1 or greater.

Logitech C920 Pro. Best Webcam for Most People. Resolution: 1080p FPS: 30 Built-in Mic: Stereo. I recently purchased a new Mac mini and it does not have a FireWire or Thunderbolt port. You will also have the same problem if you have purchased a very recent model MacBook Pro or iMac. The problem is I have quite a nice 3CCD Panasonic video camera that has a FireWire port on it. I need a Firewire to USB-C adapter but Apple don’t make one.

FireWire Cameras

Cameras with a FireWire interface, such as DV cameras or Apple's iSight, can work in Debut. If a Firewire connected camera works in Photobooth, iChat or FaceTime then it should work in Debut just like a regular built-in or USB camera.
