How do import the videos from this camcorder? (more details inside)?

Q. I have a Sony 60x Optical Zoom DCR-DVD685. I took some videos but I can't get them onto my 2010 iMac. I am using an USB cord and my computer says it notices a blank disc. I can't get the videos to import onto iMovie, iDVD or iPhoto. This camcorder records onto small discs too small to fit into my computer. Also, it won't let me delete videos. Is this because it's on a disc? Thanks.

A. If you have a mini dvd camcorder….
You will have to finalize your dvd in the camera and then put the dvd in your computer's DVD burner (top loading only) and then you will have to convert the files (I downloaded http://www.handbrake.fr/ or http://www.any-video-converter.com/download-avc-free.php file converter free) and import them into your editing program. Use the HELP feature in your editing program to learn about editing. Usually you would import your videos and drop them in to the timeline, add transitions, menus, music, etc. Once you are ready to burn, your project will be burned to a different DVD and you can file the original away.


Why it is hard for manufactures to combine digital camcorder and camera in one unit?
Q.

A. Well, all digtal video cameras do take still pictures, but they are only 0.8 megapixels which is "only" 10 times worse than my 8 megapixel digicam. On the other hand, still digital cameras lack the speed necessary to make real videos 720x560@50 fps with sound, zoom and autofocusing. Maybe some day (in 2010 who knows) the same camera will take decent pictures and make good videos, so be patient.
