It seems that all the digital cameras (compact) I look at can also shoot short movies, which I like, but they all capture in AVI, which Macs don't natively support, right? First of all, why do all these cameras only support Windows?
Secondly, why won't Apple make their OS run video files everyone else gets to run without me having to download 3rd party software, codecs, etc? I find it embarrassing to explain why this is complicated to my wife when I "sold" her on the Mac for its simplicity.
Third, ARE there any cameras that *actually* support MacOs fully? I mean - not just for still images that uplaod into iPhoto but in such a way that when plugged in my movies will download as well without me having to resort to magic or having to navigate the card from a card-reading device.
