Ignorant beginner question re firewire

[Patrick D Walker]

I have a high res camera attached to a microscope and to the mac via
firewire. Of course there is proprietary software for image capture which is
PeeCee centric and sucks.
I know this is probably not do-able, but can Rev be used to obtain the image
coming off of the camera? my guess is that without proprietary information
from Optronics (and maybe even with that info) this is not possible.
Appreciate this product and this List,
pat
