It seems I have run into a situation. I just shot some footage on the Panasonic DVX 100A. It looks great by the way... On the camera's little monitor. I ran a fire wire cable from the camera to my Mac book pro and the tried to import it into iMovie 06 (Before you judge, I don't have FC)
It sees that my iMovie claims there was no camera attached and wouldn't import. I tried all the solutions the internet and help menu suggested
Turning on and off Camera/Computer
pulling the cable and reconnecting,
Even setting the time stamp on the camera. Still nothing. So I tried on my iMac G5 Desk top also iMovie 06 AND iMovie 08! I tried both fire wire ports and NOTHING! My iSight was recognized but not the DVX
Suggestions please?
Also I know someone who owns an OLD OLD DV camera. I have used it in the past and I know it can upload footage to both lap and desk top, If I use this camera for a play back to upload, will I suffer quality loss in the picture?
