MXF, short for Material Exchange Format, is a new developed video container format for professional digital video and audio media defined by a set of SMPTE standards. This video format is created specifically for HD digital camcorders including Canon XF, Panasonic P2. If you have one of these camcorders like Canon XF100, Canon XF105, Canon C300, Canon XF305, you must be familiar with the MXF format, because Canon XF series camcorders output captured data in MXF extension. It is a pity that you can't transfer and edit Canon MXF in Sony Vegas.
How to import MXF shootings from Canon to Sony Vegas Pro for editing without quality loss?
There are an increasing number of professional video editing tools that can work with MXF files natively including Avid, Adobe Premiere Pro 3.1 or above, and Sony Vegas. But some people find it is not convenient for them to import Canon MXF to Sony Vegas for editing. There are several reasons.
1. If the structure of MXF files changed, you'll find impossible to directly import MXF videos into Sony Vegas.
2. Since the MXF format is relatively new, many video editors including the Sony Vegas are lacking of native support to it, or are only just starting to add support for this file type.
In fact, it’s not hard. The best and easiest way to let Sony Vegas work with Canon MXF files is to transcode these files to Sony Vegas compatible formats like MPEG-2, WMV and MOV previously.
