Digital Camera compatibility with iPhoto

Hello,
Does any one have experience in using Panasonic's digital camera; like the DMC-FZ38 with iPhoto9 and/or Photoshop Element6 for Mac.
I am looking to purchase a Bridge type camera, and I would like to know if there are any compatibility problems using Panasonic on my Mac.

Regards

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.3), iLife9

There are no compatibility issues with any camera that shoots jpeg. You will have issues if you choose to shoot Raw.

Thank you for this. So I will have to follow the Aperture list for RAW compatibility...and that softwares coming with the camera will not work with Mac. But that's not an issue either, iPhoto and Photoshop do the job perfectly.
In the mean time I change my mind, I will go for reflex camera like the EOS 1000D or the 450D. Canon has good compatibility with Mac.
