Yeah there are a few options for this. There are some products that are camera mounted direct to disk hard drives. They're kind of expensive, at least the ones I've seen at B&H photo. There is a budget way of doing this. You can capture direct to a laptop HD via firewire. I don't know what options there are to do this on a Mac but you can do it via Final Cut Pro or Express or iMovie on a mac very easily. This is a great option for stationary or studio work but not so good if you need the camera to be mobile.
