for cameras, there are also 4-pin versions.


Everything converts to everything else with just a cable because the pins included are:


4-pin: just data for speeds up to FireWire-400, but with self-powered devices (like cameras).

6-pin: power and data for use at speeds up to FireWire-400

9-pin: power and data with push-pull drivers for speeds up to FireWire-800, provided all devices can run at that speed.
