Hello,
I've just been experimenting with my new Intel MacBook and my old Canon XM1 (I think it's called a GL in the U.S.).
I haven't put FCP on my laptop yet but I've found I can import direct to my hardrive through the free iMovie HD program. I need to have a tape in but it records direct to my computer. Is there any advantage in doing this? Am I getting raw DV (surely not)?
It also gives me a handy field monitor.
Any advice?
Steven
