Thunderbolt device: Devices that use

Thunderbolt I/O technology

use a connector that plugs

into the mini display port on your Mac and looks like the connector below.

If your device didn’t come with a cable and you’re not sure what kind of device you have, you
can check the logo near the cable ports on your device to see if it matches the USB or FireWire
logo, both shown above. Otherwise, check the documentation that came with your device.

Note: Not all Mac computers include a FireWire port. Check your system configuration to confirm
that your Mac includes FireWire support before attempting to connect a standard (DV) or
HDV camcorder.

To check whether your camera is compatible with Final Cut Pro, go to the Final Cut Pro X
