I'm hoping to buy a new Mac Book 2.4GHz w/ 4 GB and get Final Cut Studio 2. I want to buy an HD camcorder with a hard drive, such as the Sony HDR-XR500V or Canon VIXIA HG21. Are these camcorder, via USB 2.0 connections going to put HD video files onto my computer in a way Final Cut Studio 2 can use them? Note too that Mac Books don't have firewire connections, nor do HDD camcorder use firewire at all (only miniDV camcorders use firewire).

The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.
Therefore to clarify:
- You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
- This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
- You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
- You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.
Mac-compatible HD USB camcorder.
