If you are mainly interested in a high quality automatic point-and-shoot cam that is Mac compatible in your price range, then I suggest the Panasonic GS320 miniDV. Sony is generally not Mac compatible but some videographers have used the Sony HC96 with Macs. The HC96 produces high quality video on miniDV and offers more versatility, features, and manual functions than the GS320. The HC96 is around the top of your price range.
The GS320 and the HC96 records uncompressed SD video on miniDV tape which is the preferred choice by professionals over hard drive and DVD cams because the video file does not have to be converted when importing your footage into computer for editing.
Keep-in-mind that DV camcorders do not show up on your Mac desktop like other external digital devices normally do, the cam is detected by your editing software and is imported directly into iMovie, Final Cut, and etc.
Happy Shopping
