Actually the Sony AX-2000 will import fine in FCP 7. Simply go to File/Log and Transfer and a screen will open for you. At Top of the screen (just above “Media Duration” there is a little Cog wheel. Click on that drop down and click on “Preferences”. Now set the Source Format to “MPEG 2 Consumer Cameras” and
Presto your file thumb nails will appear and you are good to go for importing. The files will be converted to mov. format which works fine in FCP 7 and most likely 5 and 6 as well.

Nick thanks that was a big help to me as well. One quick note to point out though. Although you are jumping from clip to clip with the down arrow and the filter tab is still open which makes it easy to just uncheck or delete the filters…..Make sure you do it for Each video channel you have open. If you have more than one video channel it will ONLY be jumping to the next clip on that timeline….

You can import the video files into FCP directly from your SDHC cards Open up FCP and go to File/Log and Transfer. When that opens look for a little cog wheel and click on that drop down to reveal a Preferences.
Under that preferences choose Mpeg 2 Consumer Cameras Mpeg2 SD/Apple ProRes 422.
Once you do that you should be able to see your clips. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Hi Fernando,
The way I get my video imported from my sony AX2000 is with the log and transfer in Final Cut Pro.
But you need to change the preference settings in the log and transfer. On the top of the log and transfer there is a pin wheel circle that has a drop down. Open that and click on preferences. Then choose the
MPEG Consumer Cameras/MPEG2SD/Apple ProRes 422 setting. This will allow you to easily import your MTS files which get converted into mov. files. Hopefully this helps you.

Shane thanks a million for the help. I’m really green with FCP. This is whole new animal to me even though I have done non-linear editing for years but not with FCP. I finally figured out that recording in SD 480/30p or 24p SCAN with my sony ax2000 is what FCP did not like. If I shoot in any HD format I can import through LOG and Transfer.
I really appreciate your help. This forum is a life saver.
