I Was Told To Come Here By Moderator At THR
« on: September 16, 2007, 06:16:14 AM »
I want to share some things with you guys. I have an iMac Tiger 10.4.9..I realize I'm in the minority, but that's the way it is. Has anyone here used this camera with their iMac? I like the optical zoom and the price.

Any input would be appreciated..Thanks!

I know nothing about this.

And won't pretend to.

But if you wait around a few minutes you will find several people who also know nothing but will pretend to.   grin

But also there will be a few who will be able to answer your questions.  And be correct.

Oh and let me add, pull up a chair, set down, put your feet up and stay awile.

Welcome, and one other thing.

The new guy supplies the beer and ammo.

Since I am in Iraq now I will hold off on both until I return.

But I when I do I will take the ingridents to brew my own and a couple boxes of .45 and a few hunderd rounds of 5.56.  grin

Many thanks, wmenorr67! You have my respect and prayers. My son is in the Gulf. I will provide the brew. Shiner Bock is great! Ever tried that? Have a case with your name on it!

I have an iBook and an A640.  Close enough?  The whole "A" series from Canon is exceptional, and the big plus is you don't need proprietary batteries.  You done good.

I use an Olympus eVolt e-500 and D-560 with my Macbook Pro Core Duo.

The camera you're pointing to uses SDcards. If the Macbook you have has an Expresscard slot on the side, you can get a $29 flushfit reader for those. If it doesn't, just use the USB cable, and OSX never has a problem with digital cameras. The camera itself will usually come with photo library software, or use the iPhoto software that came with the Mac.

Either way, there's never driver issues or failure to recognize. It'll work.

Thank you, guys! I mentioned an exceptional private gun collection I saw last week over on THR and was chewed out (rightfully so!) for not providing photos!

I appreciate your swift response time! Thank you for the welcome, Ron and Larry!

I'm up for that "grampster!" Good to find others in my age group as well! 60 is the new 40! I will be posting photos (very excited about that) of some up coming range trips!

The camera and the computer are two separate dealies. And jpegs are, for the most part, jpegs... It should be okay. I own a 570, and I like it.

Thank you Mr. Tuttle! I will probably (more than likely!) be asking you some questions. My wife is at Sam's as I post getting the Canon A550!

Don't have a problem with the Shiner.

Did someone say beer?  I have some great extract homebrew recipes if anyone is interested in IPAs and Pales.

Welcome. 

Now with your camera, I can't even pretend to know anything about the mac, but I do make Intel chips for a living.  No, I can't get anyone a deal or operate a computer at the admin level.  However, I have  stack of wafer with lots of microscopic holes burned in them....seriously.
