Do you have or have you ever heard about Sony PMW-F5/PMW-F55 CineAlta 4K digital cinema camera? Do you think these camera are right for you?
4K RAW may not be right for everyone--at least not right now--but that is the future. The current prevailing television standard is 1080p, but 4K TVs are on the way. Moreover, 4K resolution is the current ceiling for digital cinema projectors in commercial movie theaters. These specs place these cameras in good standing as we look to the future.
Sony PMW-F5 and PMW-F55 record in XAVC format. So what is XAVC file format?
XAVC can support 4K resolution (4096x2160 and 3840x2160) at up to 60 frames per second (fps). XAVC supports color depths of 8-bits, 10-bits, and 12-bits. It allows for a wide range of content production including intra frame recording and long group of pictures (GOP) recording.

The format is already in use with Sony's F5 and F55 professional 4K camcorders, so the idea of a plug and play solution for consumers isn't that far fetched. Still, you can expect XAVC video to eat up plenty of hard drives: According to Sony, a 128Gb SxS Pro+Sony card would max out in about 20 minutes when recording 4K at 60fps.
At this time, XAVC is a new format for most of video player or video editing software. So what application support the XAVC format?
Sony also stated that they are working with NLE developers to ensure support with programs such as Adobe Creative Suite, Avid, Final Cut Pro, and its own Sony Vegas software.
To the software that can not support XAVC file, you can choose to get a editing software that mentioned above, or you can get a converter that can convert the XAVC video to other format.
To get a converter, Doremisoft XAVC covnerter is the application you are looking for. This software will help to convert xavc to mov, xavc to flv, xavc to avi, etc. So with this converter you will import sony pmw-f55 xavc to final cut pro for editing, and import xavc to windows movie maker. If you really need to convert xavc to imovie for editing, this converter also can do the best for you.
Tip: If you need to burn xavc to dvd, to get a DVD maker that can support XAVC file is needed, Doremisoft DVD maker for mac is one of the software that can do your help.
Just enjoy yourself with your camcorder and the converter. Do the thing you want.
