I have a Macbook with Final cut express and the Sony SR11 as well. I own a Panasonic HDC-SD5, and also use my friend’s Canon HG10. Until then, Mac users has to be patient when dealing with AVCHD camcorders. Maybe the next updates to iMovie and Final Cut will address this issue. AVCHD requires a lot of processing power, but if the system/program natively supports AVCHD, it’d be easier to copy the actual streams to another hard drive and import them later.

Unfortunately for Mac users, AVCHD is a little bit inconvenient because it takes almost forever to import those video files. Videos from tapes are transferred in real time to the computer, because of the limitation of the tape medium. The advantage of using a disk-based camcorder is the ability to transfer the video clip faster than tape-based camcorders.
This is no surprise because AVCHD was developed jointly by Sony and Panasonic. As a matter of fact, Sony Vegas recognize the “.mts” file format. Sony Vegas took a short amount of time to import the same AVCHD video clip. It has Intel ® Core™ 2 Duo E6550, 4GB of RAM, and Intel ® Desktop Board DP35DP.

I installed Sony’s Vegas Movie Studio 8 Platinum Edition on a Windows XP PC that my friend and I put together. As for Final Cut Express 4, I don’t know because I don’t have it yet. UPDATE: There is an apparent conflict caused by Perian Quicktime Component ( ). On the same MacBook Pro Final Cut Pro 6 consistently crashes in the middle of importing the same AVCHD video clip. It takes roughly 3 minutes to import a 58-second clip in iMovie ’08 on a 2.0GHz MacBook Pro Core Duo with 2GB RAM and 7200 RPM hard-drive (via USB 2.0). Final Cut Pro 6, Final Cut Express 4, and iMovie ’08 do support AVCHD format, but not quite natively. Now, let’s see where things really are right now for Mac users. Leo then pointed out that Final Cut Express and iMovie ’08 support AVCHD. Alex Lindsay didn’t think so, but Leo Laporte said there is.
On TWiT 128 (10 minutes and 40 seconds into the show), Patrick Norton asked if AVCHD is natively supported in Final Cut Pro.
