User:Bjordan/1CC Camera

The 1CC video camera is a Canon FS100 A.

Positives: Small, records onto SD (which the XO has a slot for), and has a USB port that makes the camera act as an SD card reader

Negatives: Camera wants you to use its proprietary (Windows) movie editor, naming its video files .MOD.

Instructions on using these .MOD files on a Mac are available here. This suggests using ffmpegX
