Below are several disscussions about Sony A57 1080 60p AVCHD footage importing Problems for Final Cut Pro:
Q1: Importing Sony A57 footage into FCP 6
…I have used my Sony A57 DSLR camera captured lots of HD videos at 1080 60p. but I'm still working on an Apple G5 with FCP 6.0.6. Is there an application, plug-in, etc. for the older FCP to take in 60p AVCHD files? [G5, Mac OS X (10.4.11)]
Q2: Will Final Cut Pro X fully support Sony A57's 60fps/1080p shooting mode for import?
Q3: converter from Sony A57 on final cut pro
like converting the video recorded from Sony A57 and importing them on final cut pro for editing without crashing and rendering.
Here many folks are talking about how to load Sony A57 1080 60p AVCHD videos into Final Cut Pro 6/7 or FCP X for editing smoothly.

The thing is, even with the lastest update of FCP X, we have not seen the expected support for 50/60p AVCHD MTS. To solve those problems, the most important piece of the equation is that you may have to transcode Sony A5 1080 60p AVCHD to Final Cut Pro native formats (e.g. Apple ProRes 422 encoded .mov format) along with some help from the third party software.
