Ok I haven't been in Premiere since God knows how long. I remember doing this a while a go 15 yrs LOL Firewire cables etc. 

 

Now I have the old camera connected to  usb cable to USB c on my desktop. When I open Premiere I do not see the Capture option like in the past. Can someone walk me thru here plz 

 

Thx

As far as I know, PPro will NOT see anything that is not connected to Firewire (and I'm not sure that the current version will even do capture if you have Firewire) so if you don't have a Firewire connection you will need to search for other software that will use a USB port to capture... or add a Firewire card (but, as I said, I'm not sure that the current version still does capture via Firewire)
