I have a JVC mini DV video camera connected to my laptop via firewire cord. I can watch my recorded videos, and Microsoft Movie Maker doesn't work. It finds my camera but gives me an error message. What it the best program to capture the video on my computer?

what is the best film camera?
Ruddy
Not the film camera with rolls i mean the digital video camera to record good movies, with the right sensor to low lights, good definition, acceptable sounds, not to big, 750 dollars below.
might be fine a nikon d7000 with 55mm? i know that a professional camera are to expensive, but i dont want to begin with the left foot.
you are right the correct term is camcorder but you understand my answer, which is a good camcorder to recorder in lowlight, independently of the subject.

I agree with fhotoace...
If video is important, then a camcorder is preferred. It is designed to capture video. And audio. capturing still images is a secondary "convenience feature".
If stills are important, than use a still image capture device. Like a dSLR. Capturing video (and audio is a secondary "convenience feature". For example, if you read the documentation the Nikon D7000, you will find they will overheat when capturing video "for prolonged periods" (about 15 minutes maximum) and stop video capture until it cools down (takes a long time)... or... check their built-in (mono) mic and no (or extremely limited) manual audio control. This means no stereo without an external mic and adding something like a XLR adapter (~$350 from juicedLink or BeachTek) to plug into the stereo audio input + use the audio gain controls... or... use an external audio recording device like a Zoom H2, H2n, H4n and take the extra steps to import and sync the audio when editing...
Basically you end up spending more money and time you would not spend if you use the right tool for the task.
I am not saying any dSLR can't capture good video - they can - but they cannot be treated like a camcorder. There are workarounds for lots of things that you normally don't need to worry about when using a camcorder...
And we have not discussed captured video file compatibility with your computer/video editor (MOV from the dSLR), tripod and other steadying devices, lighting requirements, power supplies., cables, mics (there is no single best mic)... and lots of other "accessories" needed for successful video capture.
The camera/camcorder is only one part of a much larger system.
