How good for you, but this doesn't answer the question.

How bout the 9k? Maybe you can get a Powershot wich has manual focus,... on ebay.

I believe that the Canon Powershot A85 is an older model, thus cheaper, but it still has better quality than the 4000. However, I have a feeling that you aren't trying hard enough with the 4000; I have gotten great quality on that camera, but it takes a little figuring out before you get it down pat.

Re: cameras for mac users

if you think that....
-bringing my mac and camera to 3 stores (staples and best buy, and apple store).
-spending almost an entire day trying to find out whats not working.
-calling the apple store for advice (still what they told me didnt work).

is "not trying hard enough"

then yea i totally get ya mini/lol

THE ACTUALL PROBLOM IS NOT THAT THE QUILITY IS BAD CAUSE ITS PRETTY NICE WITH THE RIGHT SETTINGS (why is that in caps:o ). the problom is that for no reason it wont say its connected in iStopmotion (mac animation program) like it used to when i first got it

im seeing if i have an alternative camera if it never gets fixed

Yeah umm... Does the Quickcam pro 9000 work with Mac? Just wondering because I asked for it for my birthday and I'm pretty sure my dad got it...

No, it doesn't. However, it might work if you're running Windows under BootCamp.

Re: cameras for mac users

Yes,but if you run Bootcamp,you cannot access the Windows files to the mac.Because if you use a stop motion program on a PC,it would be an .avi file when you export it.Which I don't think a Mac can use.I don't know much about Macs,so I'm not too sure about this.
