Camera and Camcorder AVCHD Video Converter

Canon camcorders provide simple video editing with cutting and trimming, so that you can get rid of the content without any sense and keep storage for useful recordings. However, when I play the clip on the LCD screen, I find it uneasy to split/cut AVCHD files. Even though Canon Vixia HF R20 is equipped with 3.0″ Touch Panel LCD, the onboard feature of cutting/trimming/dividing video on Canon camcorder would take a long time for preview.
When it comes to Mac computer, things go more complicated as the bundled software in CD is only for Windows. When I googled camcorder software on Mac, some people suggested tsMuxeR, but it does not work on my iMac with Snow Leopard. I find Aunsoft Final Mate for Mac, as the perfect Mac alternative to tsMuxeR on Snow Leopard for joining/cutting AVCHD at best quality. Read The Full Story

As a fine follow-up to last year’s M3xx series, the Canon Vixia M4xx series should attract most of family-video-oriented videographers. Three of Canon VIXIA HF M400/M40/M41 consist of identical models , like the same HD CMOS Pro sensor. And the only real difference between the 3 models is the storage format and storage space. The M400, has no built-in memory, the M40 adds 16GB, and the M41 adds another 16GB.
For HD camcorder owners, the most concerned point is its quality of video recordings. Actually all 3 models record high definition footage at 1080/60i @ 24, 17 Mbps for the ultimate in image quality.

I use Canon 5D Mark II recording mov files.I used iMovie to do the original edit but found it was very poor with some under-exposed video I had so I’ve moved to Final Cut Express which is able to process the video much better. I found though that reading the Canon 5D Mark II mov files directly into FCE meant an immediate render was required but that by converting all the mov files first in AIC makes rendering unnecessary.(Canon EOS 5D Mark II enables video recording with 1080p MOV. )
So I need convert my Canon EOS 5D Mark II .mov to Apple Intermediate Codec MOV for Final Cut Express, after google search, I found Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac is the recommended can convert Canon EOS MOV to AIC for editing on Mac.

“I recently bought my Canon EOS 600D mainly for filming. Thing is, I’m having an issue with the video clips during conversion to Apple ProRes 422 (recommended by many people to use for editing on Final Cut Pro)

Last week, I had joined my grandpa and grandma’s 50th wedding anniversary. Really impressive and happy. A long marriage can feature as many ups and downs as any Hollywood movie, and 50 years of wedded bliss most definitely deserves an award. I had recorded some marvelous fragments with my new Canon 1000D and wanted to edit the recordings before share with my family. After downloaded the recordings (which are H.264 mov format) from Canon 1000D to Mac hard disk, and imported them to FCP for editing, I found FCP can not recognize the files.

I have gone to some forums and there were a lot of choices to convert. Like Composer and Mpeg streamclip, I put my clips in Mpeg streamclip or Compressor & convert to prores 422, but my videos output darker. And someone said about the Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac, which can also support Canon 1000D MOV to ProRes conversion and have a function to adjust brightness, I tried and finally convert Canon 1000D MOV recordings in natural successfully. The effect function also helps a lot in color correction as it said. Read The Full Story
