Are you a video shooting lover? If you are, you must know Panasonic AJ-HPX 300 which shots videos in MXF format. As a HD video format, MXF has become the restore format of many professional camcorders. Then, how to load AJ-HPX 300 MXF videos to FCP X for further editing?
When FCP (Final Cut Pro) has updated to the newest version, some people think that it is possible to put MXF videos to FCP X editing. However, it proves that we can not edit 1080p MXF in FCP X directly. Furthermore, even if we can import MXF videos to FCP X, it will take much time from rendering MXF to be more compatible with FCP X.
