Hello,My sister just had a baby boy and she and her husband asked me for DV Cam recommendations. I don't know as much as many of the posters here so I'm hoping for some advice.
I need something in the $600 - $900 range that also takes stills and is compatible with both Mac & Windows. The catch is the Mac is an older imac that only has USB ports and the PC is a laptop w/Win2000 (NT based). I imagine I can use a camera that has a serial port for the PC and a firewire (with an adaptor) for the Mac.
If I'm correct about that, the main concern is software.
Thanks for any info/advice

Try www.circuitcity.com. Their site explains all the basic features then lets you select the models that have the features you want. When you find the model you like, use a search engine to find the best price. Take that price to your local Sears and have them match it. To interface with a PC, you'll need one of the digital formats such as mini-DV. JVC is probably the brand to look for in that price range.
