OK I have a Panasonic PV-GS 300 camera.  I was trying to put the footage onto my macbook so I would be able to edit but for some reason my macbook doesn't read the camera.  Do I need to buy a firewire camera chord to be able to put the footage onto my computer?  Thanks NS!

Yeah for any form of video with a mac, i'm nearly positive you need a firewire cable.
