But many want to avoid having to add software to support the video encoding of the camcorders today. So can you take some time to note what you mean by compatibility? That is, is this a software issue or a hardware one?

Are there any camcorders that are easily compatible with the MAC? Have an IMac, and IBOOK, running on OS10.6.6 Just purchased a Canon Vixia HF S20, but may return if not easily compatible. In checking several customer review sites as well as Apple support, have found no one to clearly answer. Whatever is most compatible I will purchase. Any suggestions?
