MAC user: I have a MAC/apple computer and was wondering if this camera will have any issues with my computer?

Fully compatible! Link to Fuji site here: http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/support/compati_winmac.html My wife and daughter both use the (earlier model) Z100fd (8 megapixel vs the 20's 10MP), and it works fine with the Mac. Opens right up in iPhoto with no problem, tho we usually connect the XD card with an adaptor to the Mac's USB port, which seems to work faster than using the USB cable. Ours are used with an older eMac, which is only USB1, so I'm sure USB2 (which this Fuji uses) on a more current Mac will transfer files a LOT faster! Ours takes great videos, and has pretty much eliminated the use of our DV camcorder for most events. One thing I'd recommend is to NOT import video clips into iPhoto, as the file sizes tend to reduce import speeds to a crawl, as well as slow iPhoto down quite a bit (altho this may not be an issue on a modern Intel-based Mac). Hope this info helps you... we Mac users need to support each other! ;-) BTW- I've added the lime-green z20fd on my OWN wish list here on Amazon!

Works very well with a Mac computer. The camera is also easy as a Mac to use! The videos can be used in iMovie.

I've used mine every day since I got it and have had no issues whatsoever. I swap it back and forth between a PC and a Mac, and the only thing I've needed to do on a regular basis is to clean out the ghost files my Mac creates.

When i download my movies from this camera to my Mac, there is a disconnect between the video and the sounds. It's like a delay. Very annoying as i use it mostly for short clips of concerts. Also, there is a long delay between when i push the button for a photo and when it actually takes it (the photo). Are there fixes for for this? Operator error or is this the camera? Really thinking about selling it. But then what? I researched this for a long time and am disappointed.

No...the software is not Mac compatible. However the camera can be made to work with a Mac. I use Parallels or Bootcamp and run the included software on Windows on my Macbook Air.

I'm pretty sure it will be. Most canon products work very well with the Mac computer. I use me HV20 with my Mac, so I'm pretty certain it will work on you Mac.

Not sure if you have received a response but unfortunately I cannot answer the question. Supposedly in the description it is compatible with all macs. But I will say that it's tough to get the camera pointed in the right direction. Where the camera attaches to the base is pretty loose. The wire easily affects where it points. Video quality is excellent though.

I use PC's and my son uses a MAC and he had no problem with it when I download photos on the flash drive and give it to him. Good luck

This camera works fine with my Mac (Mini running Leopard) to download pix into iPhoto. It just shows up as a drive like other digicams. The web cam function does NOT work on the Mac though.

I plan on purchasing a Mac laptop. Am I going to have problems downloading pictures with any of the Mac/laptop versions??

I don't think I"m going to be overly helpful here. I use a card reader to drop my photos onto my mac. Saves the camera batteries. Also, I have an 8 GB card and it is fine. Good luck!

Hi, What is your operating system...PC window or Mac? I am looking for a camera that will work as a webcam also and it seems that Fujis are ones mentioned, but have not found any info on which cameras or how to hook up. I see no one replied to your posting, but wondered if you ever got the S700 to work as a webcam as i am very interested in this camera...thanks

I have had no trouble at all uploading to my Mac from this camera. I have worked in both iMovie and FCPX with no glitches at all.

I believe that the software that comes with the camera has a "MAC" option for installation. The image files that are produced by this camera work in the "MAC" platform.

I did not have a mac so I don't know. I wouldn't take the chance on buying it since it has a lens error issue that makes the camera not worth having

i have a new macbook pro (less than 4 months old) and I can upload just fine. I mainly use the sd card but the computer recognized the card even after formatting in the camera. a few times i went straight from cam to comp and it worked fine
