Recording video movies
You can purchase application programs that allow you to record, play, and edit
video segments. Several utility programs for working with video and
animation are included in the Apple QuickTime Starter Kit, available from
Apple-authorized dealers.
Video images occupy large amounts of memory and disk space. You may
want to increase the amount of RAM and disk storage in your Macintosh if
you plan to work with video frequently.
