Does anyone know if Vegas 8.0c can edit content filmed with the HMC150, which stores as MPEG-4? Thanks.

Yes with caveats. I have had suttering problems with 60p footage. I sent a project to SCS tech support and received the following response. I have been able to render to the cineform intermediate and reimport.
Our testing team did find that this clip was causing stuttering during playback and rendering. They also found inconsistent results and on about two out of ten renders they saw the stuttering. During playback in the timeline they saw more consistent stuttering and reported that "The more times I played the clip back in Vegas, (whether it was the original footage or one of the test projects) the worse the stuttering got."
We have bugged this issue and added this format and camera to our list of things to be fixed and improved going forward. At this time you might try rendering the files to intermediate AVI and then reimport and complete your editing.

It will with a fast processor; don't know what the least expensive one will be (and it'd dependent on things other than just the processor, too). I run a Q9450.
