import Panasonic HDC-HS900 60p AVCHD to iMovie 11

Panasoni HDC-HS900 can record Full HD video, offer 1080/60p recording, and have the capability of recording 3D content when using Panasonic’s optional 3D conversion lens (VW-CLT1). But it is not easily to transcode Panasonic HDC-HS900 footages to iMovie for editing, why?

There are mainly two reasons why you can not transfer AVCHD files from Panasonic HDC-HS900 to iMovie, incuding iMovie 8/9/11. Firstly, the recordings with the codec H.264/MPEG-4 are highly compressed for saving storage space and smooth playback, but the H.264 files are not suitable for editing, so editing H.264 MTS files in iMovie is always a headaching problem for editors. Secondly, iMovie can not always successfully recognize footages at 60fps or 50fps so far. So if you want to put 1080/60p/50p files to iMovie, you will meet the importing problem sometimes.


How can it be solved?
