For all you Mac & Quicktime lovers out there: BEWARE! This camera creates a different type of file that cannot be read by Quicktime. What's worse is the JVC offers no software 4 Macs or any sort of converter program. Wow, you pay $500 4 a cam from a multi-billion dollar company like JVC & they don't bother 2 help you!!!
Fortunately there is a free program called "MPEG Steamclip" that can export the files 2 something Quicktime will understand, however very time consuming.
