I have a Sony HDR-CX160 with 48GB memory and started making movies on HD format. I realize I can't import directly to iMovie because the camera uses AVCHD on MTS format in order to save space on the memory cards as MTS is high compressed. The files from this camera is .mts 1080/60p 28M. I found on the web several conversion tools and picked one called Brorsoft (there is a trial version with full functionality only adding a water mark while in trial) but there are tons of other software options to do so.
Question one:
In order to not loose quality does anybody have used this tool or any similar tool? what will be your recommendation?
Question two: I have converted a 1 minute movie with 228MB in .mts format to .mov keeping the 1080/60p frame rate after conversion file is 150MB but after importing into iMovie it became 1.8GB file. Is this correct or I have done something wrong?
