How would I connect firewire to the new MacBook Pro? I occasionally need to do so to capture from older Sony decks. (though i'm keeping my old MBP around so not the end of the world for now)

I have an Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter. Would it be as simple as plugging that into an Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter?
[doublepost=1478418094][/doublepost]Found the answer in an Apple support doc. Yes, but only devices that draw under 10W. As my deck plugs into the wall for power I presume thats ok.
