Are you a Panasonic Lumix lover? The DMC-LX7 is coming! I believe it will be your best choice for capturing 1080 60p (50p for PAL) videos when travelling. The Lumix LX7 features a fully redesigned 24mm ultra-wide angle LEICA DC VARIO-SUMMILUX lens with 3.8x optical zoom, great Venus Engine as you’ll also find featured on the LUMIX G5, a new 1/1.7-inch 10.1-megapixel MOS Sensor, and its capability of Full HD 1080 60p/50p video recording with Power O.I.S.
I am very glad to get the Full HD AVCHD Camera from a Panasonic friend. After many tests, it work fast and it is easy to use. But it is a pity that, after many tests, I found we can't 1080 60p/50p AVCHD video from DMC-LX7 to Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 for editing as well as other Full HD Camera. If you also want to put DMC-LX7 1080p MTS shootings to Premiere, you will meet the same trouble. You may get an error message as "The file has unsupported compression type" or "Codec not supported".
According to the error message, you can get that the problem lies in the codec of the imported files. Panasonic Lumix LX7 records high resolution full-HD 1,920x1,080 60p videos in AVCHD Progressive (MPEG-4 / H.264) format, the codec of which is great for streaming or playing, but it is so highly compressed, thus not perfect for editing. So you will find that AVCHD files, actually the H.264 files are rejected by many NLEs. Although Adobe has tried best to make AVCHD footages work with its Premiere Pro CS5.5 and the latest CS6, it always some incompatiblity problem reproted. The best solution to the problem is proved to be a MTS file converter, which is able to convert MTS to MPEG-2 for Premiere Pro, since MPEG-2 is proved to be the most friendly video format for editing in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5.
Here recommended the top MTS Converter for Premiere Pro, applying which you can get your AVCHD footages from Panasonic LX7 converted to MPEG-2 with original quality. Follow the listed four-step AVCHD to MPEG-2 conversion, you can put 1080p MTS files in Premiere Pro without any problem.
