Im wanting to purchase a Panasonic HC-V720 camcorder but there are lots of reports of its AVCHD 1080 60p/50p recordings not being compatible with iMovie. It seems they have to be converted to AIC first.

I can probably do this via a suitable app such as Brorsoft, possibly Handbrake, but would doing so result in a reduction in picture quality? If I'm paying for a HD camcorder I don't want to lose any picture quality in editing.
