In my recent post "Update on the ‘Four Mysteries of the Universe…" I highlighted the fact that 3 out of 4 ‘mysteries’ had been answered. Well, Apple answered mystery #2: AVCHD editing software today with the release of Final Cut Pro 6.0.1. The Final Cut Pro update page states:
New in Final Cut Pro 6.0.1 Update
Improves overall stability, resolves issues with long filenames on non-HFS systems, includes improvements for both FxPlug plug-ins and master templates. Log and Transfer support for the AVCHD format.
I think I can hear a collective sigh of relief from many Mac using purchasers of cameras such as Sony’s HDR-SR7 or HDR-SR1
So, go get your wallets out and buy Final Cut Studio Pro 2 and get editing that AVCHD source footage!
