sizes and frame rates of AVCHD material in its native format. After Effects can import AVCHD
material directly; it can import Adobe Premiere Pro AVCHD project files and sequences, or it can
create composites with AVCHD material inside an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence using Adobe

With CS5, all applications are nearly identical between the Windows and Mac versions. Most
application project files (Adobe Encore excepted) work in either platform, so crossing between
platforms is as simple as accessing the media files and the project files with either system, either
over a network, or with external hard drives. It is therefore possible, for example, to work in the field
with a low-cost Windows laptop and then transfer all work to a Mac desktop station, or to work with
both Windows and Mac stations on the same network.

Acquiring AVCHD Footage
AVCCAM is Panasonic’s brand name for its professional cameras which use the AVCHD codec. The
most common method for acquiring AVCHD footage is to shoot with any of Panasonic’s AVCCAM
cameras, including the AG-HMC40, AG-HMC70, and AG-HMC150 camcorders, and the AG-HCK10
camera head coupled with the AG-HMR10 handheld AVCHD recorder.

Footage already shot may also be delivered on storage media such as hard disk drives, digital tape,
optical media such as CD, DVD, or Blu-ray, or by any other file storage system. As long as the AVCHD
file structure is maintained, these files are identical to the files recorded on an SD card.

AVCHD is recorded to SD and SDHC flash memory cards. It is recorded within a file system common
to all AVCHD equipment. The topmost folder is called PRIVATE. Inside it is a folder called AVCHD,
which contains two folders called AVCHDTN and BDMV. Inside the BDMV folder are three folders
which contain the data for the footage recorded by the camera – CLIPINF, PLAYLIST, and STREAM.
The STREAM folder contains the MTS files, which are the footage.

No special drivers are needed, as the SD card format is common to and supported by all major
computer operating systems and most computer manufacturers. Cards can be read natively by any
computer with an SD card slot, or through external readers, including the AVCHD camcorder itself.
