How to Import Canon XA20 50/60p MTS/MP4 to iMovie & FCE on Mac?

Summary: If you want to edit AVCHD .mts/.mp4 files shot by Canon XA20 smoothly in iMovie/FCE, here is right for you. Go to following article to get the instruction.

The Canon XA20 is a ultra-compact, entry-level professional camcorder with unmatched performance. The XA20 camcorder combines outstanding image quality with dual-format recording in a compact form factor, making it ideal for all sorts of professional content creation.



Customer reviews and questions:

1. Really good to have the top handle for this camera. Makes for nice stable shots -- partic when chaing the kids around the backyard. Nice and easy to get creative low angle shots. Great HD footage in such a compact unit. With connection and attachment options for Mic's and other audio attachments, this is a camera that you can justify buying the good accessories for. Just got a XA20, however I have no idea that it doesn't work with FCE. Any insights?

2. I Use this product to produce high quality YouTube videos and Wedding Videos. The quality is outstanding and the 60fps @ 35mbps data trans MP4 recording is just awesome! I would recommend this fine piece of equipment to any high end consumer/videographer. But I have some issues, the footage is from the XA20, just realized this AVCHD file won't be accepted by iMovie. So any reliable workflow recommended?
