As a Mac consultant I sometimes come across old Macs and try and give em a new home. Also a gadgethead,I may buy something, try it and turn around and sell it here. First adopter.I am not a Power Seller. Just an individual like u recycling cool stuff
Camera does EXACTLY what it says it does.
As for software even if you are a true video editor ,you still will not be encoding for Blu-Ray discs.
With Avid and Final Cut Pro, u still have to down convert some stuff for true HD.
The Canon does a simulated Cinema 24p that looks great.
