Hello,

can somebody tell me if I import my footage into iMovie 08 from my Sony Mini DVD Handycam, does the quality of the original footage on the mini DVD deteriorate at all? If it does, is there a way I can import footage from the mini DVD into imovie, with no loss of quality?

Also when I share my final movie in iMovie so I can use it in iDVD, I share it at the large setting of 720x540. Does this cause any loss of quality? If it does, is there a way not to lose ay quality before I burn it to a DVD?

Any answers to my questions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian

You can't import sony into iMovie, you can only import it into its special software available only for windows. Sony stores everything in a proprietary format.
