Can Mac OS9 handle P2 xfers? at DVinfo.net

We have a G4 Powerbook here. It's currently running OS9 and we can't switch to OSX without spending a bundle to upgrade several applications.

Does anyone know if the PCMCIA slot will read P2 cards under OS9?

Many thanks!

Not at all. You need OSX 10.4 for this format. And FCP 5.0.4 to import it....FCP 4.5 just to work with dvcpro hd.

Time to upgrade not only your OS, but computer as well.

Actually I think that FCP 3 is the last version which would run under OS 9...
