The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX200V ($479) is a high-end superzoom
camera that does just about everything imaginable. Whether you're
talking about its built-in GPS, 360 degree panorama maker, 10 fps
burst shooting, instant HDR photos, or 1080/60p videos, the
HX200V has nearly every bell and whistle ever created. To top it
off, it features the highest resolution sensor in a compact
camera (18 Megapixel, which may or may not be a good thing) as
well as one one of the most powerful zoom lenses (30X).

I have a Sony CyberShot DSC-HX200V and I shot video using the
AVCHD setting, but i can't import the file to my Mac. I am
running OS 10.7.5 on an iMac 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5. I have
up-to-date versions of iMovie and iPhoto. Neither of these
programs will recognize the file. I tried importing using Final
Cut and Adboe Premiere Pro as well, but with no success. Is there
another way to import this file? Am I missing something? What do
you suggest?
