Sony HandyCam compatible with Macintosh?

Is my Sony handycam HDR-SR1 compatible with imovie?

  • I bought this handycam and I love it, but have been having a hard time finding any programs that work with it except Sony Vega and that is a really difficult one.

  • Answer:

    But you do have to have iLife 08. That camera uses the AVCHD codec which was not supported in earlier version of iLife on the Mac. The new iLife 08 will support that new codec. Good Luck!
