This thing is a nightmare to get to work. I don't know what kind of a deal Best Buy and Insignia have going on, but they are trying to push these things hard. Both the 720p and 1080p versions are very hard to make work with a Mac. If you're planning on editing your video - PC or Mac - you'll hit problems also. You can tell it's bad - the Best Buy by my house is now selling the 1080 version at 99$ with a huge "15% RESTOCKING FEE" sticker on the opening flap. Avoid this product at all costs.
I use a Mac too and found that importing 1080 files into iMovie leaves a black stripe down the left side of the picture. Switched to 720 mode for shooting and problem went away, but the reason I bought it was for the 1080 capability. Bummer!
I got this camera back on Wednesday last week and opened it on my birthday (Jan. 15). I'm happy with this for the most part, but I'm just needing to know what codecs or things I need to make my videos play back better. The camera has some very nice still picture quality. I'm using MOV settings for my videos, but videos just come out pretty substandard at times. This is my first-ever camcorder and the first Insignia product I've ever owned. Great camcorder, nonetheless.
