I really like the product and the output, but I wish the software was more helpful with the burning DVDs, making movies, and uploading smaller files. The files are HUGE. If you have the time, this is a good product. But it takes forever to do anything.

I had the worst experience shopping for SR82 at butterflyphoto thru Amazon. I always loved shopping at Amazon but this has been my worst experience. First butterflyphoto put this product as on sale for 570$. I was really waiting for an offer as the last time i got this handycam was in christmas and for $500 thru Amazon. So I quickly hit the checkout and purchased it. I recieved a shipped mail (thru fedex) from butterfly after a few days and on the same day I received the mail that the request had been cancelled. I went in Amazon my stuff section to find my order but it clearly had dissapeared. Initially the money was withdrawn but then they had cancelled the payment.
Now whats so worse when you got your money back you might think. The worst part was the item was shipped to my address and was cancelled half way thru and the only reason I can now find for this is that SR82 rates have increased twice fold.
Why should they provide a sale if its a false one. If they did not have the product I can understand. But it waas shipped and cancelled and so much for customer satisfaction.
This is my first review. Many good experiences do not provoke us to write about them but one bad one does.

I very annoyed to have bought and used this camera, which is a lovely camera, to find once I want to download films that it is in NO WAY compatible with a Mac. Perhaps my error in not researching this aspect, but I would think that in this day and age a product should alert customers to the fact that it is not Macintosh compatible. I am now completely stuck with a camera that I cannot work with.
