Here you go. Grass Valley purchased a company called Canopus that makes these handy little boxes to convert analog to Firewire.

Don’t purchase the really cheap Dazzle which you can get at Best Buy and other retailers because performance is spotty at best with FCP.

You can use the Canopus or use any Firewire camera and use that as the converter.
