Well I've done a quick internet search but can't find the specs of your DVD recorder.
Have a look at the DV port on your camcorder - this will be a 4 pin port. Now compare it to the one on the recorder. If it is the same size you will need a 4 pin to 4 pin cable, but if it is bigger then as you say you will need a 4 pin to 6 pin firewire cable.

Mark.

DMR-E900 ? maybe E100 0r E500 (typo), pana uses 4 pin mini DV on all, unless you have E500 and confused with its ethernet connection
