First off, what kind of Mac is he using? If he is using a mac with slot-loading drive (G5 or Intel iMacs, iBooks, MacBooks, Powerbooks, MacBook Pro's), then you should use a tape format as the Mini DVD will not workin inside the drive(Don't even THINK about sticking that mini dvd in the drive!!!!!).

I own a couple macs, and I do quite a bit of editing in iMovie and FCS. I personally use a Canon MiniDV camera, but I really want to get Canon's HV20, which is their High Definition consumer camera..... When it comes to video, I always reccomend using tape over miniDVD as some of the mini DVD cameras do not have a firewire out on the camera(I'm lookin at you sony!)
