But when you import Canon XA10 AVCHD 1080p files to Avid Media Composer for further editing, you will find that what claims on Wikipedia is not so right- your files can not be imported to Avid Media Composer. It utilizes MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression technology similar to the technology used in Canon's HD DSLRs and is increasingly popular in consumer market. The AVCHD codec was announced in 2006 and is quickly becoming the standard for professional camcorders. Able to capture AVCHD video at bitrates up to 24Mbps, the camcorder's native 1920 x 1080 CMOS sensor also lets you choose 60i, 24p, PF30, and PF24 frame rates for customizing the look of your footage. Sporting a 64GB internal flash drive and two SDXC-compatible card slots, the XA10 can record literally for days without running out of memory. The new and ully featured, ultra-compact Canon XA10 HD Professional Camcorder, which is designed for situations where mobility is critical while shooting, shares nearly all the functionality of the XF100, but in an even smaller, run-and-gun form factor.
