I think you'll be OK, but you'll see for sure after you'll download the trial version of any of the software that can handle HDV files. I use Ulead video studio 10 plus, but this is my personal choice because I'm familiar with this program thins version 4.0. A suggestion would be to get a external hard drive to store your work and make sure is connecting via fire wire and make sure that the fire wire card that you need for your laptop has more than one port.
