It certainly does - No.11 (IEEE 1394) connectors are what you are looking for

You MAY need to buy a firewire(IEEE 1394) cable but you should be able to plug the camera into one of those sockets.

Plug 11 on the back of front will do the job, the one on the front is a mini plug and has no power supply, so will work for a camcorder (as it has its own battery), but not say a Firewire HDD.

Doing it on the cheap get Microsoft Movie Maker 2 and that will be the software to capture the DV footage and create many kinds of output (though not DVD).

Firewire is the sexy name for IEEE1394
