iMove 3 no longer compatible with old Apple list of DV Cams?
Question everyone. I have a JVC GR-DVL120U
Mini DV Cam. I have used it in the past with the other versions of iMovie. I just recently looked at Apple's website again for compatible cameras....alas, it it not listed anymore. I have not pulled any video from my camera since iMovie 2 and was wondering if this means that my camera will no longer work with iMovie? Or is Apple just trying to list the models that are brand spankin' new and trying to save everyone's eyes from a long list read? (it this be the case, they should have a new camera list, and then a complete listing of the cameras that will work..not to scare people like myself.) I have not installed iMovie 3, just got iMovie 3 on saturday, but was away from the house when it came..and just got around to looking up some info on it today. Please tell me I have not lost funcionality of the camera on iMovie..tell me I am just paranoid, and to have a stiff drink.. (but don't lie)

Go ahead and try your camera, she'll still work. I think the list over at apple.com only represents the brand spanking new models.

My Sony DCR-PC9E has never been listed, but it works just fine: as long the the camera supports the Firewire connectivity standards properly, you shouldn't have any problem.
