Transfer videos from Panasonic NV-GS27E to mac
I am just getting started working with video editing and facing a major problem even before getting into the actual editing 🙂
My setup is as follow:
1) Panasonic NV-GS27E Mini DV Camcorder
2) Macbook (older model with the firewire port)
3) iLife 2009
Question: What is needed to transfer videos from Panasonic NV-GS27E Mini DV Camcorder to mac? Do I need to by the firewire? If firewire is recommended, is there need for some additional software or has OS X/iLife all the necessary components?
I have went through several discussion forums and manuals but have not been able to find a clear answer. I would greatly appreciate help on this topic.
