I want to start shooting with a vintage Super 8 camera like this; however, how do I then get the video off and onto my Mac for editing in Final Cut?

You will need a Super 8 player that can take the film from this camera and then has something to connect to the Mac. Most likely, it will just be composite video output, so then you'll need a capture device that takes composite and connects to the Mac through USB..
