best camcorders with mac image

I have a Sony DVD Camcorder and a Mac Book Pro.
I havent been able to dowload and save all the mini dvds I have in the mac.
Is there a free software that does that?
Answer
Which Sony DVD camcorder?
I would suggest that you get an external drawer loading DVD drive (I like the ones from LaCie). Download and install HandBrake - and rip the video from the miniDVDs to a format iMovieHD and FinalCut likes... like .mov or .mp4. Then drag the converted file to the clips pain or timeline of the video editor.
NEVER put a small (8cm) or odd sized optical disc in a slot loading optical drive - you will scratch the disc and break the drive. Connecting using a USB cable will not work. That is generally only for webstreaming or transferring stills from a memory card. Neither iMovie nor FinalCut will recognize that there is video trying to come in from the USB port. DVD consumer camcorders do not have a firewire or DV port.

How can I get my Mac to recognize my Panasonic Camcorder?

I have a Panasonic SDR H60 camcorder and Mac OS X 10.4.11 computer. I use iMovie '08. I have been able to upload video from the camera directly to iMovie before, but now I can't. My dad used the camera on his PC with the software provided with the camera, and I'm wondering it that may have messed up the ability of the camera to work with the Mac. How can I get the camera to be recognized by iMovie again?
Answer
Make sure the camera is in playback mode.
