Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ7 is slim and light, especially when you remember that it squeezes a 10x (25-250mm) zoom lens into its body. On speed, the SZ7 delivers very respectable performance. It can record in AVCHD format at 1080p30 resolution. While, AVCHD format doesn’t excel in the compatibility with some non-linear video edit programs. Some users want to get footages from Lumix DMC-SZ7 to iMovie for editing, but they often meet an error message- incompatible format. It menas that iMovie can't surpport Panasonic SZ7.
As noted by many early adopters of iMovie ’11, the software still does not support the import of AVCHD (.mts) files from a number of camcorders; Panasonic DMC-SZ7 could be one of them. You will be eager to know how to make the AVCHD recordings from SZ7 editable for editing in iMovie ’11 without any trouble. Here we have an easy solution.
In fact, the favorable format of iMovie is Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) MOV. So the easy way is to encode and change AVCHD to AIC for iMovie ’11 before importing with the professional Mac AVCHD to AIC Converter. It provides Apple built-in codec with .mov as file extension, which is one of the only programs on Mac to open .mts and .m2ts files and convert them easily.
Guide: Transcode Panasonic Lumix SZ7 AVCHD to iMovie ’11 on Mac
Step 1: Run the top MTS Converter as the best AVCHD to iMovie Converter on Mac, and click the "Add" button to download .mts files from camcorder to the application.
Step 2: Click the "Format" option, and select Final Cut Express > Apple Intermediate Codec(AIC) (*.mov) as the exported video format. What’s more, you are free to choose the folder where you want to put converted MOV file by clicking the “Output” icon.
Step 3: Click the "Settings" button; choose 1920*1080 as output video size, 30fps as frame rate.
Tip: Before start AVCHD to MOV conversion, you need to deinterlace 1080/60i AVCHD clips to remove all these interlacing artifacts from videos via ticking the “Deinterlacing” box in the Video Editor interface.
Step 4: Click the button “Convert”; it will convert AVCHD to AIC for iMovie ’11 immediately.
And after a few minutes, Panasonic DMC-SZ7 files are ready for you to put to iMovie 8/9/11 for editing on Mac OS X without any trouble.
