The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH3 Mirrorless Digital Camera (Black) features a 17.02MP Micro 4/3 Digital Live MOS sensor and a 4-CPU Venus Engine, which enable the GH3 to capture high resolution JPEG and RAW stills as well as intricately detailed HD video. It supports several video recording formats:
QuickTime：[Full HD] 1080 60p/30p/24p, HD 720p
AVCHD Progressive：[Full HD] 1,920 x 1,080, 60p
AVCHD：[Full HD] 1,920 x 1,080, 60i，24p
MP4: [Full HD] 1,920 x 1,080, 30fps, [HD] 1,280 x 720, 30fps, [VGA] 640 x 480, 30fps
The most popular HD camera format is AVCHD, and most people like shooting video with 1080 60p. However, the 1080 60p AVCHD is the most problematic editing format for iMovie. For example "I have a Mac and had a problem with my software, iMovie, recognizing my AVCHD 60P movies from my Panasonic GH3. Turns out to be a software limitation. Could it be something like that? I bet a .mov would come in no problem."
Have you ever met the similar issue? And do you know the reason? Have you find what is the best way to solved the problem and get Panasonic GH3 60p AVCHD to iMovie? In fact, 1080 60p AVCHD is a new and nonstandard video formt and Apple Support says explicitly iMovie, (including iMovie 11) doesn't support it, Final Cut Pro X can support it well. So we can't directly or natively copy any 60p AVCHD .mts or m2ts file to iMovie for further editing. It menas we have to convert the format to a comfortable format before importing and editing.
Here we recommend you the best converter for Panasonic GH3 to iMovie, applying which, you can transcode Panasonic GH3 AVCHD 60p movies to iMovie most compatible AIC .mov format and tweak the 60p frame rate to 30p for easily recognized by iMovie on your Mac OS X.
1. Launch the AVCHD to iMovie Converter for Mac after the installation, and then load your .mts or .m2ts files to it to converting. If you want, you can merge several AVCHD clips by ticking “Merge into one” box.

3. Tap "settings" icon to customize the output parameters, adjust the resolution, bitrate as you want. Set video size as 1920*1080, video frame rate as 30fps is better (If the original recordings are 1080 50p, 25fps will be advised).
