Sune,
It is my belief that your off-line correspondent is incorrect but I will
make further enquiries.
My understanding is that when a DV camera plays a tape the signal which
emerges from the Firewire port is a copy of the digits on the tape, whether
PAL or NTSC.
If a PAL camera receives an NTSC digit stream into its DV IN socket it can
record it and display it on its screen but it cannot output the picture via
the analogue out socket (the phono socket) because it only has facilities
for encoding a picture into PAL and it can't do that to an NTSC signal, as
far as I know.
If you play your NTSC tapes on a camera and link it to another PAL camera by
Firewire can you view the picture?

Hi Julian and thanks for your mail!
I received the following mail off-list. I hope it is ok that I repost it
here!
------------
the pal devices that support ntsc playback do this only via lcd and rca
in low resolution, never through the ilink or firewire cable. You need
an ntsc device. Good Luck

Julian: I would capture it as NTSC and convert it to PAL DVD with canopus.
