Any good Digital Camcorders that are Mac compatable.

Hi all out there. I'm going on a driving holiday around europe soon and want a good digital camcorder for filming (will be attached to roll cage in the car!) Can anyone reccomend a good DIGITAL camcorder that can be hooked up to the iMac and footage edited???
Let me know
heers
Mike.

Yes, Macs will support MiniDV format. The Canon Optura 400 is a MiniDV format camera. Have a look at the iMovie HD support page, as this will answer many of your questions about digital camcorder support.

  • Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap). Any ideas?

    Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap and doesn't provide any kind of professional DVD authoring). Any ideas?

    This comes up a lot these days.
    Practically speaking, there are really four options for the Mac platform: Toast (<$100),  Adobe Premier Productiom ($1,600 to buy or $50/month to rent),  find a copy of Final Cut Studio from 3rd  party (+/- $1,000 new) or a boxed edition of iLife to get iDVD ($50 - $90 on Amazon new).
    The other question everyone has is how many OS versions before iDVD or FCS breaks? No one knows, but Apple has said they're no longer supporting these legacy apps. Of course, no one is mandated to upgrade to a new OS unless they buy a new computer. So if it works on a system, stay with it as long as it makes sense.
    Good luck.

    Hi I'm looking for some keyboard shortcut that are Mac but I want PC. Here they are:
    ATL + shift + l
    ATL + q
    ATL + a
    ATL + shift + e
    ATL + z

    ALT + SHIFT + f
    they are for mac I them would like for pc... Thank you

    Ah, thanks. Goes to show how carefully I look at keyboards these days...
    So Opt(alt) on the Mac should map to Alt on PC.
    It would actually be helpful if the OP told us waht the shortcuts were meant to do...
    And there's always the help files. A complete list of default shortcusts is at http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html

  • HT1391 How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the recordings I purchased

    How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the albuns I bought?

    cu is right.
    classloader returns the URL of your resource. You can the jar using something like the following...
    ClassLoader classloader = this.getClassLoader();
    url = classloader.getResource("your_resouces...");
    if(url == null)
    System.out.println("cannot find resource ");
    return null;
    String jar = url.getFile();
    jar = jar.substring(jar.indexOf("/")+1, jar.lastIndexOf("!")).replace('/', '\\');
    obviously, this code snippet works on windows only. Now you have the jar file path. I use Jar file classes to access the jar file. (e.g. you can search for each class files)

  • Are there any good fax programs that work with Efax besides Efax Messenger

    I just signed up for a free months trial of Efax. I downloaded the Efax Messenger program which seems to work well except for the fact that it does not save any fax packages (on my computer) that I send out. This is an important needed feature. If I send out a package of 5 or 6 files to someone I need to be able to look up what I've sent them. The only way I can do this is to put all the files in a folder named for that particular fax, then put that folder in a second folder that is labeled faxes, then fax the files from the folder by Efax. Quite a process. I called Efax and was told that this feature was only available for a Windows Machine (Efax, catch up!)
    Are there any other programs that are easy to use and at least as good as the Efax Messenger that have that feature?
    We are traveling in a sailboat, don't have a land line. We only have a wifi internet connection when they are available, (internet cafes, etc.) or sometimes at anchor using long range wifi. I don't have the luxury of going online to check faxes all the time, hence the necessity of having them on the computer.
    Any help appreciated.

    Just to be clear, though, reducing the resolution of an LCD can have a negative effect on image quality. LCDs have an optimal "native" resolution and setting the resolution below that native level results in a poorer quality image.
    Leopard claims "resolution independence" - I have not tried it yet, but if you read the description of this feature, you will note that it applies to the user interface elements. Granted, that's often what you notice the most (i.e. the problem with reducing the resolution below native for an LCD is that the text in Finder, all of the menu bar items, etc., looks "fuzzy"). By appropriately scaling the UI elements, Leopard overcomes the limitation. But the "fuzzyness" will still apply to non-UI things that are displayed - i.e. images. Since based on your posts you will be working with images primarily, high-res vs. standard is still a choice I'd recommend considering carefully, and ideally by trying them both side-by-side.
    Ps. Thanks for awarding points!

  • Any free game apps that are actually good?

    I got my ipod touch a few days ago and before that I found a list of the "148 best free apps'. I downloaded the ones that looked good but most sucked, so are there any that are actually good and free? Rock band free version was at the top of that list and it sucked because there is only one song to play.

    i spend alot of time playing lightbike, it's kinda like the old game tron, and a good tower defense game i found was TM zero, also, assassin's creed has a free game out, worlds hardest game light is pretty cool, and COD Zombies is supposed to be good, i got it and i'm having a little trouble with the controls, but it's pretty cool, jelly car is nice to, red ball also. i still haven't found to many good ones, but i got most of those recently, i only got my touch 2 days ago, so yeh.

  • 24" iMac any good for games (compared to Mac Pro)

    Hi,
    I'm on my second Mac Pro and after no end of trouble so i'm hoping to exchange it for a 24" imac but i was wondering if it's any good for games?
    I would probably configure it with the 7600gt and maybe the 2.33ghz proccessor.
    My mac pro with the x1900xt ran Quake 4 and Doom3 etc at full stettings really well but i've just had to much trouble with it!

    The iMac would be fine for games for now, but you are stuck with the configuration that you purchase as there is no way (for now) to upgrade the video card.
    There is a thought that some OEMs might make an upgrade card, but as of now there are none.
    The big advantage of the Mac Pro is that it has the PCI-express video card that you can remove the stock card from and add a newer, better card.

  • Are there any portable e. readers that support Mac software???

    Does anyone know of any portable readers that work w/ Mac? For example, Sony makes a fantastic one but it only supports Windows! Open to any suggestions...thanks!!

    There are many "readers" as you call them for different file formats listed on Versiontracker.
    One included with some Macs, which you can download is Zinio's:

    If you are talking about reading software for the blind, Mac OS X has built-in software in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Universal Access for Text to Speech.

  • Are there any good strategy games only for macs?

    If so what are their names and would you recommend them?
    If not what strategy games would you recommend for an SR mac book with 4 GB of ram? And 2.2 GHz

    Games in Mac, well, suck. It's disappointing, especially when developers do a 3rd-rate job of brining existing PC games over to X.
    I have the same MacBook as you, napoleon. Here's the kicker - Your Intel X3100 video drivers are BETTER in Windows than it is in Leopard. Even the dock in Leopard is choppy. Makes me regret my MacBook purchase at times (though so many other positives!).
    It saddening that you can't avoid Windows, especially when you only want to play a few games.
    My suggestions for RTS games for Windows:
    Company Of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
    Age of Empires
    (as said) C&C3, it's a fantastic game, and an amazing series. You can't go wrong with Command and Conquer.
