Connecting a Mini DV camcorder and transferring video to an iMac

[PDemchko]

I have an iMac and an older Sharp mini DV camcorder. Does anyone know if there is a cable and program to transfer any video via a composite/S Video hookup? maybe a composite/S Video cord to a firewire or usb hookup? I think I might have another out connection but I don't have the camera in front of me, will check on that. I don't care if you have to actually play the video and the computer just records the video and sound as it plays, I just need some way to get this video on my iMac to work with. Thanks in advance for any advice.
