USB and firewire cables are completely different and are not interchangeable. A firewire cable is rarely supplied with a camera and 99% of the time you have to buy one. They are available are most places that sell computer gear.
The camera will have a 4 pin socket and most PCs use a 6 pin socket. If your computer has a 6 pin socket you require a 4 to 6 pin firewire cable. Firewire is also called IEEE1394 or iLink.
