Firewire to USB

Hi, I am looking for an adaptor to connect Firewire to USB-C. Does anyone have an idea how to find it?

You can use an Apple USB-C to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter combined with an Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter. You will also need the appropriate Firewire cable as well.

I have used those adapters to connect to a Firewire drive before. Of course if you have some other type of Firewire device, then it may or may not work, but with these adapters you are getting a connection to Firewire. If the device you are connecting requires a third party driver, then it may not work. Without specific details no one here can say.
