Yes, this camera is fully compatible with Macintosh. You will need a program that can play and decode DVD's, but if you have iLife that will work just fine.

The good news about most electronics, especially camcorders and digital cameras, is the graphics and video format has been pretty much been standardized so you don't have to worry about compatibility problems as you move to different platforms.

Good luck and enjoy your camera!

Thank you and great response time!
Any suggestions on a great camera for under $100 on ebay?
I've narrowed things down to Sony or Panasonic. (Can't believe the prices have dropped so much since miniDV has hit the market!)
Several people have reviewed JVC for night shooting and suggested I lean toward Sony. I've always steered clear of Sony in the past but it's been many years since I've owned a Sony product.
