This is probably a firewire connection for use with computers. If you have a Mac, you can use iMovie, for example, to import your video from the camcorder for editing.
You can also output it back to tape - the firewire connection is both ways.

Yes. DV in/out connection is called "iLink" in sony camcorders. It allows you to download the videos from your minidvs or digital8 tapes to your pc, as you were dowloading photos from a digital camera. Also, it lets u upload videos from your pc to your mindv or digital8 tapes.
