Okay. So my mom bought me this camera a few christmases back.
But I haven't really started to use it till now.
It's a FS100 Canon camcorder.
Here's a picture. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41Wf9bCCQWL.jpg
Here's my problem. When I record a video on it, it won't upload to my Macbook.
It says that the file can't upload.
To record my videos I put the camera on the record button and just hit it.
I didn't change any settings on the camera from when I got it.
Also, I don't know if this helps but I record it on a 2GB SD Card.
I'm almost 100% positive that the memory card isn't the problem though.
Since I've tried it on other cards.
Please help me. I really want to use this camera for it's full use.
Answer
The Canon FS100 is a standard definition, flash memory, consumer, camcorder that saves video files to MPG file type. iMovie cannot deal with that file type directly so the file needs to be transcoded - converted.
MPEG StreamClip
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
and
Flip4Mac
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/flip4macwindowsmediacomponentsforquicktime.html
should both be downloaded and installed to your Mac.
Convert the MPG files to MP4 MOV files... then quit MPEG StreamClip and launch iMovie. Drag the converted files to the sequence pane... edit..

hello dears; i have a Canon G11 but i cannot find the controls to zoom during video recording, some people say camera has the zooming feature other say no, any instruction of how to make the zooming works will be appreciated. thanks a lot
Answer
The zoom control is on the top right of the camera. It's a lever around the shutter button. See page 64 of the user's manual.
The following paragraphs in the Canon G11 manual talk about whether you can operate the optical zoom and AF while recording video clips:
â¢"You can also zoom in and out with the zoom lever during shooting".
â¢"If you change the composition of your shot during shooting, the focus will stay the same but the brightness and tone will automatically adjust".
Conclusion:
So yes you can zoom, but your subjects must be relatively still. So no fast moving subjects then!
