AVCHD to ProRes-Convert Panasonic SD900 MTS recordings to ProRes 422 for FCP editing on Mac
It is said that the Panasonic HDC-SD900 is an amateur filmmaker's dream. It turns out to be true. Panasonic has decided to hold a greater share in HD camcorder market with the HDC-SD900 – and indeed it has managed to do it. It is a Full HD 1920 x 1080/50p camcorder, which ships 3MOS 2.53MP sensors. Besides, it shots video recordings in AVCHD format like MTS or M2TS and has enough manual features and creative functions to satisfy even the most demanding movie maker.
You must be disappointed when you are prevented from editing AVCHD recordings on FCP. Don't blame the FCP because the AVCHD video formats like MTS and M2TS are not compatible with FCP for further editing. But it is said that FCP supports importing MTS videos for editing. In fact, sometimes you are able to import MTS video recordings to FCP. However, it will take such a long time to wait MTS videos being rendered for smooth editing in FCP.
