Transfering VHS to PowerBook

First, I hope this is the correct forum for this question.

I recently purchased a PowerBook G4 12". I was wondering if there was a way to transfer video from a VHS tape into the mac for editing. Also if the equipment I would need is the Mini DVI to Video Adapter.

Thank you for any help. New user, first post.
