Convert/Import Sony NEX-FS700 1080 50p/60p MTS to ProRes MOV for FCP 6/7/X on Mac

Sony NEX-FS700 can shoot full 1080p video in a range of frame rates up to 60p, it provides the option of recording AVCHD footage onto SD card/MemoryStick or via the FMU (flash memory unit) port, or it can output 4:2:2 video (with embedded timecode) via HDMI 1.4 or 3G/HD-SDI to an external recording unit. It is a fully professional large-sensor video camera. Hot on the heels of the FS100, this compact, highly modular camera uses a very similar-sized Super 35 CMOS sensor as the Sony NEX-FS100.

It is a pity that 1920 x 1080/60p AVCHD MTS/M2TS full recordings from Sony FS700 can’t be edited by Final Cut Pro 6/7 or FCP X directly via Mac.
