Summary: Is there a simple or elegant solution to convert files from a Sony XDCAM format to a file format that is editable/supported by iMovie? Yes, there is. Find it now.
If you've shot digital videos with a Sony XDCAM camera, you might want to import the XDCAM files into your Mac for editing. All Mac laptops come with the free iMovie application already installed, but you can't import XDCAM files into iMovie, as the application has to convert the video files into a different codec. But no worry, here are some solutions for you.
I know that Sony has an XDCAM Transfer tool but that only seems to transcode to a compus supported by Final Cut Pro. So, you will need another tool to help you convert Sony XDCAM to iMovie. Brorsoft [url=http://www.brorsoft.com/video-converter-mac/]Video Converter for Mac[/url] which was recommended here.
This program is better than Sony XDCAM Transfer.
