all you need to do (on a mac atleast) with FCP is go into your capture settings, within log and capture, and change device control to "non-controllable" device. this avoids final cut looking for timecode from a tape. "capture now" begins loading material live to you're hard drive. which is nice.

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.
