Does your mac have an SD reader? You might be able to bypass the camera altogether.

John, check page 94 of your manual. You need to set the camera up as a card reader.

I guess you are going to need a $20 card reader.

What exactly are you referring to when you say it's not compatible with macs?

have a few but when traveling, believe it or not, every little bobble counts. would prefer to skip the card reader if possible.
the mac issue so far is that my macbook pro and imac won't recognize the camera. when i go through the hardware review it shows as connected via usb. doesn't register in any software or as a drive.

If you buy a card reader you'll never have to deal with not having hardware support ever again. They're like $20 or less, and they're no larger than the USB cable you have to carry around anyway. I use os-x supported cameras and I still use a card reader.

well, like i mentioned. have numerous card readers. just prefer to leave them at home on extended journeys.
