I almost made the decision to but the Panasonic HDR-CX550v based on some reviews I read BUT:
"The Panasonic HDC-TM700 ships with HD Writer AE version 2.1 software. The software is essentially the same as its previous incarnations, but this new version does allow for importing 1080/60p footage. Having this feature is an absolute necessity as no other commercially available programs seem to be able to handle the 1080/60p footage shot with the HDC-TM700. If you want to get that 1080/60p footage onto your Mac, however, you're out of luckHD Writer AE is only compatible with PCs."
So... what do you guys think? I figured I would want to shoot with 1080/60p since its the best but then what? Is there anyway around this so I can edit this video on my mac (you know, the new mac pro I'm buying next Tuesday when they come out
). Thank you.
