Do I have to have a special SD card to run the HERO? Or will any old SD card work for HD? It seems the quality sucks when I load it to IMovie...

It works best with a Class 6 SD card (faster). If you are getting poor video check what setting your running 720p or above should be giving you outstanding video.

Is Imovie, anything like some of the 'pc' video editors. I have one editor, that the quality looks like crap, when you are 'editing', but you take it, and 'save' the edited video, or record it to a dvd, and the video quality improves. It's probably like this so that you have 'lots' of ...ram??? memory to do the editting, without bogging down the computer.

What exactly do you mean when you say "quality?"

Some machines lack the graphics horsepower to play high def video files at their native frame rate. I had this problem with the 1080p @30fps files from my camera, until I upgraded machines. Playback on my old machine was choppy, but my new machine plays it smooth.

I was the guy with the fur hat on the latest video on the BCP vimeo site. I use a Sony AX2000 camera for some of it and felt like I wasnt getting the best quality. I will have to check out what FPS I was shooting, 1080 was blurry. I am clearly doing something wrong... Maybe I should read the manual.
