Canon C300 Mark II is a hot camcorder on the market, since it released it has attracted great attention due to its excellent hardware equipment. It features a Super 35mm CMOS sensor, which will help you to record 4K, 1920*1080 60/50i, 23.98/25p True 24p videos. With C300 Mark II you can record high quality videos, it delivers the highest image quality with its XF Codec–the same codec used by other Canon XF professional camcorders

Though Canon C300 Mark II camcorder can help you to record high quality 4K MXF footages, but usually it can make video editing a real nightmare: "I've got a ton of Canon C300 Mark II footage that I'm trying to import the C300 Mark II 4K MXF files to Premiere Elements 13 for further editing. Since the files come out natively as MXF, Premiere Elements 13 couldn't recognize these files at all, let alone do the polishing work. What should I do?" 

Currently 4K footage is not widely supported yet. Afterwards, when you got a pile of MXF files from Canon C300 Mark II, there's no luck Premiere Elements can support all of your media.

The Canon C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera offers all of the advantages of its predecessor while adding advanced new imaging and operational features by popular demand. In addition to improved RGB video processing, the camera's dual codec capability supports simultaneous AVCHD and MP4 recording, including 59.94P capture along with slow and fast motion recording. 

However, due to different reasons, people sometimes may encounter incompatibility issues one or another while importing and editing Canon C100 Mark II AVCHD footage in DaVinci Resolve 9/10/11: "I have recorded many HD footages from Canon C100 Mark II that in AVCHD video format, now I would like to import these projects to DaVinci Resolve 11 for editing. What I want is to edit AVCHD files natively in DaVinci Resolve 11 on my Mac, but I found the DaVinci Resolve 11 can't handle some AVCHD MTS files smoothly." 

The most important thing to remember with any digital card format is to copy the entire card, as this will maintain the folder/AVCHD file structure that a lot of non-linear editing applications need to work with the files. What happens when you don't have the whole card structure to work with? Well these apps will convert standalone .MTS files for you for free. 

Apparently you can simply use Free MTS Converter for Mac to re-wrap your AVCHD media out of its .MTS wrapper and into a friendly .mov wrapper (keeping the internal H.264 codec that was inside the .MTS file all along). 
If you want more options and power for converting your .MTS files for editing in DaVinci Resolve 11, then you can't do much better than Pavtube Pavtube MTS Converter for Mac (Only $29) which will batch convert or re-wrap your AVCHD and HDV files to DNxHD mov and ProRes mov for DaVinci Resolve at great speed. I've used it for a long time and I've never had a problem with it. 

Now, you can download the best AVCHD to DaVinci Resolve converter for Mac. It will solve AVCHD .MTS and Resolve incompatibility issue quickly and easily on Mac (El Capitan and Yosemite included). For Windows, MTS/M2TS Converter is the best choice.

As a professional video editor, I meet all kinds of video formats and handle different problems brought by them everyday. Last week, my workmate who's a newcome videographer told me the trouble he met: He took his Sony F55 Camcorder to record a short video of his friend's concert. Then he was to convert MXF to AVID DNxHD for the further editing. But he soon had difficulties in choosing a practical converter which is able to help him carry out this conversion. After I heard about his matter, I directly recommended him a piece of powerful software - Pavtube iMixMXF

 

Pavtube iMixMXF is a terrific application which mainly focuses on converting MXF to many different popular formats, such as MOV, MP4, AVI, SWF and so on. One of its distinct features is that it can convert multi – track MXF videos. It exports and preserves MXF 2, 4, 8 or more audio channels as individual, and outputs and mixes selected MXF audio streams into one

Moreover, Pavtube iMixMXF supports to split and merge MXF files in conversion. Its most important function for me is that it converts MXF for many common applications such as Avid Media Composer, Final Cut Pro, iMovie and so on. This point just satisfies my unique requirements.
