Q.
A. While the software included with the camera may not have a Mac version, you generally never need it anyway. Most advanced photographers do not use the included camera software, but simply transfer photos from camera to computer by removing the memory card from the camera and inserting it into a computer (PC or Mac).
In the end, this is easier, and it alleviates the need to install any software on your computer from the camera maker - which can be temperamental.
To do this, you may need to buy an inexpensive memory card reader - but most modern PCs and Macs already have SD card readers built into them.
Macs will read the various versions of the formatting used in the typical camera (FAT). The only restriction is you should never delete a photo in a Mac nor should you format the memory card in a Mac.
Formatting is a no-no as natively, the Mac will not format in FAT, but use the Mac file system - which no camera can use. Formatting the card in the camera formats it in FAT, which the Mac can read. You can actually format the memory card in a Mac, but you have to use advanced commands to do it right. You need to format in both FAT and usually use a 32kb file allocation block, which can only be done with a unix command. It is far easier for most people to just format the card in the camera.
If you delete files off the memory card using a Mac, the files are not deleted but just hidden. Therefore even though you cannot see the files, you will not be able to recover the memory space on the card.
If you delete photos using a Mac - you must also empty the trash bin to recover the memory space on the memory card.
If you delete the photos in the camera, you don't have to be concerned with this.
If you use a camera that produces RAW files, you may need to find a codec that will properly handle them, or use a 3rd party software such as Adobe Lightroom. But JPGs should work fine. This is an issue with PCs as well.
Otherwise you should have no issues.

What is a good camera?
Q. I am sick of getting these digital cameras that eat batteries and take fuzzy pictures and then just stop working. My third one just won't turn on any more. Once I take it back, I want to find a new one. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm looking for around the $100 mark but I'll appreciate any ideas you have.
A. Canon PowerShot A2500 is an excellent camera. This camcorder comes with 2.7-inch TFT color LCD . It also has 16megapixel and ½.3 inch ccd sensor. It can also hold up to 64gb sd card. This camera shoots awesome videos with a 720p HD and have been one of the top recommended in 2013 so far. It would be perfect for your youtube videos. It is sold at amazon for $85 which i think is a decent price for such quality. I have provided links below for you.
