Do You know of a camcorder that has good picture quality in imovie 09???

I have just purchased an imac OS X (10.5.6) with a 24 inch screen with imovie 09. I bought a Panasonic SDR-H80 HDD camcorder, downloaded video to imac 09 and the picture quality was VERY BAD!!!!!!!!! Does anyone own and use a camcorder on this system and get good picture quality????????? Which camcorder are you using???? Thank you

My suspicion is that you have mimatched settings between the camera and iMovie. The answer lies in the 215 post "DV Video Quality" discusssion. The iMovie settings must match the camera settings ie. aspect ratio, frame rate, ect. for the end product that you desire from iMovie/iDVD. With all the setting set correctly almost any end result can be achieved with good quality. A good tutorial for iMovie 09 features in general is http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/imovie_09stone.html.
Good Luck

    You should post your question in the iMovie forum where camcorder users are more likely to hang out.

  • Do you know the evaluation level that the OWSM is accredited to?

    Do you know the evaluation level that the OWSM is accredited to?

    I am working for a company who needs to have their IT infratsructure accreddited because it holds secure data. Therefore with the implementation of new hardware/software especially where external services are called the system has to be re-accreddited.
    I am currenlty writing a high level design utilising the Oracle SOA suite and using the OWSM to authenticate messages being exchanged. However the queuestion has been asked whether the Oracle SOA suite and more specifically the OWSM has been accreddited to handle impact level 3 data.

  • In iMovie 11, how can you cut/paste a clip that has subtitles and actually have the subtitles get cut/pasted. When I try, the subtitles disappear into the void and I have to do the subtitling all over again.

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

  • How do you import a video file that has extension gp into i movie.  also rotating video

    How do you import a video file that has the extension gp into ivmovie?  Also how do you rotate a video . (the video was taken from a phone.)

    Hi, your video file needs to be converted to eg. a .mov or .mp4 file before iMovie will recognise. I use 4Media MP4 converter and it works excellent.
    For the rotating I do not have an answer, but if you would manege you would end up with a very narrow image either way.
    Good luck

  • How do you know when the person that you've shared the file with has downloaded the file?

    After the person get the email that says "I am sharing these files with you.   Click on the image below to view or download your file.", how do you know that they've viewed or downloaded the file?  Do you get an email message or is there something in the shared status that lets you know?

    Thank you for your post. Although this is a feature for Buzzword, right now it's not possible to know if someone has viewed a file you've sent via Share. We are working to integrate Share/My Files/Buzzword so that this will be corrected in future.
    Let me know if you have additional questions.

  • Want to Buy Camcorder that has Mac Compatible Software

    I am in the market for a Camcorder in the $300 - $400 price range. I would like to find one that has Mac compatible software. All the ones that I have checked on Amazon, etc. are only PC compatible.
    Are there any Mac compatible Camcorders available in my price range?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Most consumer camcorders will work with iMovie, which comes preinstalled on your Mac. You don't need any special software to capture/ingest the footage.

    I want to get some Ice Creme M scratch remover for my iPod to remove the hairline yet very shallow scratches on my 5G screen from my case... but to be honest I don't know of any stores that sell Ice Creme M. I am hoping Circuit City?!
    The only place I can find it is at the manufacturers website... http://www.radtech.com
    Cause I really don't want to buy it online.... but if I have no choice....
    Anyone?

  • Where can I get a website template that has good support?

    Hi
    I am new with the abode software. I have the creative cloub. However, I am not website designer. So, I would like to find something that I can work with that has some support to it. I know a little about building websites, but not much. I would like to find something that is already set up for the bootstrap or responsive time templates. Can anyone help direct me?

    Yup, your question and Diane's answer helped me also. Tho' I had had problems before getting into the iTunes store I always managed to find a way. Today they had me blocked cold with the "Update to 10" advert no matter what I did. Other questioners are being told, incorrectly as it turns out, that they have to update their OS to accomodate iTunes 10 and upgrade to iTunes 10. I did the download which did not take up much more room on my crowded old hard drive and now I'm back in business.
