Well, that's only a real issue if you don't have USB 2.0, which SONY relies on now. Which is ironic considering that SONY first developed firewire and then abandoned it to MAC. Such is the fickle nature of SONY.

Another option may be the optical camera dock. I know that the dock for the HC96 has a fiewire connection through it. The dock for the SR-1 may have the same feature.

BTW - I noticed that you haven't marked any replies as the "best answer." Are you still looking for an answer? If so, I recommend you re-submit it on http://www.digitalcamera-hq.com so it will have a better chance of being noticed. These days it looks like most questions are being answered within a few days.

If you're happy with the answer you received, you can simply click on "Mark for best answer" bubble and it will close out the question. Thanks for posting it and Good luck!

Alas. But if you have a PC, you can still transfer with USB. If a MAC, I'm afraid you may be out of luck. Don'tcha just LOVE Sony?
