Canon C500 is very excellent, you may have bought a C500 camcorder and need to edit C500 files in Premiere Pro CS 4/5/6, but C500 MXF files are not well supported by Premiere Pro CS6, as you may encounter many audio and video problems, such as bitrate unsupported, and synchronization program.

We did a test, we had only been able to get 35Mbps and 25Mbps files to work in PPro CS4, we have to use CS5 or above to edit natively 50MBPS 422HD recordings with AMA MXF or Canon XF Plugin. To edit C500 MXF videos, you'd better upgrade to CS5/CS6. But some users can't upgrade to CS5/CS6, what will you do?

In fact, it is an easy solution for many users, it can save money and same time. The most importnat is that the conversion won't reduce the video qaulity. Here we run Pavtube MXF to Premiere Pro Converterto take an example. Below is the simple guide on how to convert C500 MXF movies to Premiere Pro CS4/CS5/CS6 supported formats.
