Best answer: If you've got firewire out, you can hook it to the firewire port on your mac and use iMovie to import it. iMovie 2008+ has YouTube specific settings that will auto-upload it for you after you've entered your YT account information.

unixrat is right, and according to the Sony product page, it does have firewire(IEEE 1394, also referred to by Sony as i.LINK) out.

No, sorry. I didn't know you wanted a Windows version - the question didn't say.
