Q. I have a Camcorder. I want to make videos on it. My only problem is, is a camcorder and a video camera the same thing for making and uploading videos to Youtube? if it isn't that i would need to also know how to upload a video from my Camcorder to Youtube. I already have an account. If I have to connect something to my computer which I am sure I am gonna have to do, what do I connect?
A. Turn the camcorder on, press the record button and record a video. Connect your camcorder to computer by whatever mode the manual for the camcorder tells you. Transfer you files to the computer, you may need a NLE program to do the transferring for you. Edit you flick, make a file, upload it to youtube. EASY to do
What camcorders are compatible with Mac and iMovie?
Q. I want a good camcorder for YouTube. I will be using imovie on MacBook Pro to edit them. I read somewhere that some camcorders aren't compatible with macs. So what are some good camcorders
A. I've been editing video on Macs for many years.
Any camcorder with a DV/IEEE1394/DV/i.link/firewire camcorder works fine.
Any camcorder with a USB port that records very compressed AVCHD files to flash memory or hard disc drive (I've imported video from various Canon HS R, HF M and HF S series camcorder, Panasonic consumer AVCHD camcorders, Sony consumer AVCHD camcorders, JVC consumer camcorders and others).
I also have a Canon PowerShot AS3300is that provides video and stills into my Macs just fine.
Final Cut and some plug-ins are needed for higher end camcorders - like the Panasonics that record to DVCPro or DVCPro HD format; Sony Camcorders that recorder DVCAM, HDCAM and XDCAM format; and the Canons that record MXF files.
GoPro cams are fine. Basically, I have not yet encountered any camera that I could not get the video into my Macs for editing. Maybe a transcoder is needed. Having MPEG Streamclip from www.squared5.com and HandBrake from www.handbrake.fr takes care of that...
I take that back... the crappy DVD based camcorders that have not been made for several years were a pain because the slot loading DVD drives cannot deal with the small 8sm discs - so I got an inexpensive external LaCie drawer loading drive... but other than that...
The only thing I have found that is "not compatible with Macs" is the useless software that comes in the box. Since it is useless, it is irrelevant.
But if "not being compatible" is a problem, find the article you read and get a list from the author. Then stay away from those.
