AVCHD Nonlinear Editing
The AG-HMC70 can be connected to an AVCHD nonlinear editing
system by means of the USB interface or an SDHC card reader.
This reduces production time by allowing high-speed data transfers
without the need for digitizing.
* Panasonic has confirmed AG-HMC70 compatibility with the following AVCHD nonlinear editing
software (as of February 2008). Apple: Final Cut Pro Version 6.0.1, GrassValley EDIUS Software
Version 4.5. For information on the compatibility of other nonlinear editing software, please contact
the manufacturer. For further information, we recommend that you refer to software that supports the
Panasonic Consumer model HDC-SD1.
Free transcoder software (from AVCHD to P2-DVCPRO HD) is available. For details, please visit the
Panasonic website at <https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/>.
