After much website searching I have finally purchased the Sony HDR-TG3E. The camcorder works well on a Mac although the software is only for Windows. However iMovie 08 has no problems with the HD content from the 4GB Memory Stick Pro Duo compressed with AVCHD. The menu system isn’t as straight forward as I would have hoped, a minor point, but otherwise the camera is better than expected. The size is close to that of a digital stills camera although a little heavier.
There is a lot of information about the camera on an active AVForums Thread covering the Sony HDR-TG3E with around 700 posts at the time of writing. There is a Sony TG3E review at Engadget.
