Since iMovie’08, Apple has announced that it works with many tapeless camcorders that record to flash memory, HDD, or DVD media, including camcorders using MPEG-2 (standard definition) and AVCHD (high definition) formats. With the release of iMovie’09, iMovie '09 supports the most popular video formats like AVCHD and MPEG 4, and even the new iFrame video format.
