Needed to convert XDCAM HD PDW-F350 MXF files to MOV for Mac
“Hi, there all, I am a media producer and video editor. I edit and receive footage from many different cameras/formats. I use FCP and occasionally Avid. Recently, I received loads of XDCAM HD MXF clips from one of my important clients. Video’s are used for corporate production. These video files recorded as industry-standard MXF data files were captured with a Sony XDCAM HD PDW-F350 camcorder. Since my other converter did not convert the footage cleanly, I needed to convert Sony HD CAM/XDCAM footage for working on the Mac with another workable converter program. Does anyone know such a reliable Sony XDCAM HD Converter for Mac that is capable of batch converting Sony PDW-F350 MXF clips to QuickTime MOV for editing on Mac NLE systems? My most concern is lossless quality or invisible quality loss. Thanks a lot.”
