If you´re seeking a way to transfer old 8mm movies to your Mac for editing in iMovie, Sony has two potential solutions. The Digital Media Converter will convert any media that has composite or S-Video connectors to a file on your hard drive. If you don´t have massive amounts of storage (digital video files are very large), you might want to use the Digital Walkman instead, which will convert the media onto DV tapes. Once it is on tape, iMovie and Final Cut Pro can control the Walkman for importation of selected clips.
