I have a lovely new Canon XF100 and it generate MXF Files. However when i tried to import these HD MXF videos to FCP X for editing, the iSight runs when i click the camcorder button on FCP X. After searching and consulting,I noticed that there is Canon XF plugin for FCP7, but Canon XFP plugin doesn’t work for FCP X.

MXF file format comes from like Canon XF300/XF100, Panasonic HVX200/HPX300, Sony EX camera, etc. It is not compatible with many programs just like Apple Final Cut Pro. So convert mxf file to FCP X mov video is a necessary step to do if you want watch your video from your camcorder which export mxf file.

And we know that Apple ProRes 422, Apple ProRes 4444,introduced in Final Cut Studio, was advertised to one of the codecs to result in less compression and higher data rate/higher quality files for HD editing in Final Cut Pro X.

Below I would like to share my experience of converting Canon XF300/XF100, Panasonic HVX200/HPX300, Sony EX MXF files to ProRes 422 for Final Cut X editing and QuickTime playback.

Step 1. Connect Canon XF100 with Mac and transfer/backup the MXF files to Apple hard drive disk with Canon XF Utility. You will get the folder with files like .CIF, .THM, .MXF and .SIF.

Step 2. Run Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac as the best HD MXF video to FCP X Converter to transcode Canon XF100/Panasonic HVX200/Sony EX videos to ProRes 422 MOV. Then click the Add button to import .mxf files or drag and drop the files to the application UI.

Step 3. Set output format as Apple ProRes with 1920×1080 for MXF Final Cut.Just Follow Format > Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov) as output format .For HD 1080P video files, you can click the "Settings" button to choose 1920×1080 as video size. Then click "Browse" to freely specify where you want to store the videos.

Step 4. Click the convert button under the preview window and Convert MXF to ProRes 422 MOV starts immediately .

After the Apple ProRes MOV is exported, you can easily enjoy your time editing HD ProRes videos on Final Cut Pro X and playing on Quicktime.
