Hi,
I'm seriously considering getting myself either an imac or macbook. From what I have read I think either will suit me for everything I need to do but the one thing I am unsure of is video editing.
I don't need to do anything too fancy (just a few titles, transitions and a burn to DVD) but I tend to use a JVC Everio camcorder which records everything in MPEG2 format. These are just copied directly to the machine and imported into the editing software when using the PC. Would the mac supplied software allow me to edit using such files? If not would there be software I should look to buy in addition to the machine? Is there anything else I should be aware of regarding video editing with supplied software?
Thanks in advance.
