you need a graphics adapter to plug in the video cam, once installed any of the utilities available to produce webcam streams or pics can be used as they ask for the source.

I assume that the Sony is a Digital cam with a fibre output. You will need a Firewire card in your PC and you can download some software from www.tucows.com (http://www.tucows.com)
