How do i use a camcorder to make a home on a DVD?

Question by confused: How do i use a camcorder to make a home on a DVD?
I have a Panasonic PV-GS31 camcorder and all my home movies are on mini DV tapes. I have an HP pavilion desktop with windows vista that i was planning to use. The software is Windows Movie Maker. So my problem is that i dont know how to connect my camcorder to my PC. the manuel book says i need a DV cable. Where can i get it? and will it work after that?

Thanks for the help.

you need firewire (IEEE 1934) port on your PC and firewire cable to connect to your camcorder
