Search, search, search.

Yes, you can record directly to the computer in most modes, though depending on who you ask, it may choke on 1080/204p and 720/60p.

Ken, I have the same MacBook Pro and recorded straight out of the camera at 1080i/25P (PAL version) until my internal drive filled up. Worked fine.
