What type of computer should I get for editing Cannon Hg20 Vixia Full HD?

Q. Here is my camera http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/camcorders/consumer_camcorders/vixia_hg20#Overview

My computer right now (HP pavilion Slimline) cannot handle the HD.

The footage comes out skippy in sony vegas.

I was wondering the computer best for me, like a mac ect..?

A. If you buy Mac, we've heard stories here, about problems with cameras talking with a Mac. I believe it's because 95% of the planet runs on windows these cameras don't relate well to Apple.

Okay, that said, you can buy a card reader for little $$. As I understand it, readers do talk with Mac.

Either way you're going to need software.


What are good ways to steady a video shot?
Q. What are good ways to steady a shot?
I'm referring to just using a personal camcorder (Canon VIXIA HF S21) for making short videos with edits, not something too professional.
Do most people just use tripods? I find it annoying to have to set up most every shot on a tripod, especially if you do a few different takes for each scene.

A. Tripod.

Learn to stand still and stable while holding the camera.

Prop yourself and/or the camera against another stable object like a wall, post, table, etc.

Still, if you seriously want to make good video, you don't moan and cry about how much trouble it is to move a five or ten pound camera and tripod. This takes SECONDS to do.
