Hi there, I would like to buy a bloggie™ PM5 Mobile HD Snap Camera but have heard that the picture motion browser 3d doesn't work on MACs. I have a 2x3 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon with a Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard Can I run the software on my computer and then edit on FCP?

Many thanks,

Samantha

Hi samdias, welcome to the Sony Forums

Sorry to say, PMB is not available for the mac. However mac-compatible Bloggie software is supplied with the camera.

For 3D footage most Mac users convert the video first, prior to import into FCP.

Cheers

Mick

Dear Mick, thank you so much for your reply!

Does that mean the Bloggie 3D comes with a windows and mac compatible software?

And you can use the mac-compatible Bloggie software to browse/convert the 3D footage?

Can you still manage to get the 360 view or do you have to choose sections for that?

Have you tried it? Does it take long to convert it?

Oh, I am sorry I have so many qestions! Have been trying to get info on web for days now!

Thanks you again!

Best,

Samantha

Hello

I can answer the question about the supplied software. Both versions are provided on the internal storage within the Bloggie and as a backup, both versions are also available for download from the Sony website for the 3D Bloggie which is here:
