Why can i not use the format produced by Minolta digital cameras in movie
maker. I think its a SVG format or something...it runs in Quicktime. Is
there somewhere I can convert the movie files? Or do i have to use my cheep
cannon?

If it's a MOV file it must be played in QuickTime. MovieMaker cannot import
MOV files, but QuickTime Pro can convert it to AVI, which MovieMaker can
then import.

As far as I know SVG is scaleable vector graphics, which is a weird one. If
quicktime plays it, hopefully it may be able to convert it.
